St Louis, MissouriAges Any age - NCT07700862Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for tremor-dominant Parkinson's disease
This trial compares two ways to place electrodes in the brain to reduce tremors. It may help people with Parkinson's disease whose main symptom is shaking.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07701785Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for Parkinson's with mild memory issues
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation called iTBS on an area of the brain that may help with thinking and memory problems in people with Parkinson's disease and mild cognitive impairment. If you qualify, you and your caregiver would take part in sessions and answer questions about your daily life.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 50–85 - NCT07193303Recruiting
Mental imagery for arm and hand skills in Parkinson's
This study tests if mental imagery exercises can help improve upper body movement in people with Parkinson's disease. It may offer a safe, drug-free way to practice daily tasks.
Kahramanmaraş, OnikişubatAges 40–75 - NCT04058457Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for people with Parkinson’s
This study looks at how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects breathing in people who have Parkinson’s disease and are planning DBS surgery. You may be able to help researchers learn whether DBS changes breathing and how to manage it safely.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18 years+ - NCT04061135Recruiting
Study brain and movement patterns in Parkinson’s or tremor
This study looks at brain signals, thinking, and movement behaviors in people who have Parkinson’s disease or essential tremor and are being considered for deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. It may help researchers better understand how DBS affects the brain and day-to-day function.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04071847Recruiting
Study tracking results after Abbott deep brain stimulator surgery
This study follows people who are getting a new Abbott deep brain stimulator (DBS) device or replacing the battery/implantable pulse generator to see how outcomes change over time. It mainly applies to certain DBS targets and diagnoses, and it uses follow-up visits to track results.
Tucson, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT04114994Recruiting
Memory testing study for adults 50 and older
This study checks how people’s thinking and memory change over time using a specific cognitive test. It may help researchers understand patterns of memory change and supports future research on brain health.
Miami, FloridaAges 50 years+ - NCT04116996Recruiting
Brain stimulation for severe insomnia in Parkinson’s
This trial tests whether stimulating a specific brain area (the globus pallidus) can improve severe insomnia in people who also have Parkinson’s symptoms. You might be considered if your insomnia is very difficult to control and you meet the study’s brain, sleep, and travel requirements.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 40–80 - NCT04179695Recruiting
Testing a new communication aid to improve patient-centered care
This study tests a new tool meant to help patients and healthcare teams communicate better and support “patient-centered care.” You may be invited to use the tool and complete study activities during your neurology care visits.
