Algorithm Guided DBS Programming in Parkinson's Patients

Enhancing Deep Brain Stimulation Programming for Parkinson's Disease: A Semi- Automatic Algorithm-Guided Approach Using StimSearch- A Double Blind Randomized Study

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

Patients undergoing Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's disease will be subjected to standard of care programming and compared with the algorithm based programming (StimSearch). Various parameters including the effectivity and efficiency of algorithm programming will be compared against the standard of care programming.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Have a confirmed diagnosis of bilateral idiopathic Parkinson's disease - Exhibit a UPDRS subset III score of ≥ 25 while in the preoperative medication off state - Demonstrate an improvement of Parkinson's disease symptoms by ≥30% in the medication off state following a pre-operative levodopa challenge, as assessed by the UPDRS subset III score - Possess the ability to comprehend the study's demands, treatment protocols, and procedures, and provide written willing to sign a consent form before undergoing any study-specific tests or procedures Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Patients with notable psychiatric conditions, including unrelated clinically substantial depression as assessed by the investigator, will be excluded from participation. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
