Registry study for Vercise deep brain stimulation patients

Parkinson's Disease

Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.

This study keeps a record of people who receive the Vercise deep brain stimulation system. It helps doctors learn how the treatment is used in real-world care and how patients do over time.

Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Who can take part

  • You must be at least 18 years old.
  • You must meet the Vercise system requirements listed in your local “Directions for Use” instructions.
  • You cannot have any medical reasons that your local Vercise instructions say are not allowed (contraindications).
  • Your doctors may also exclude you if you have significant thinking (cognitive) or mental health (psychiatric) problems that affect assessment.

Deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s, dystonia, or tremor

This study tests deep brain stimulation (DBS), a therapy that sends electrical signals to the brain, for movement problems like Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, and essential tremor. It may help people whose symptoms are not controlled enough with medications, or who already have a DBS device and need ongoing management.

Brain scan study for Parkinson’s patients with deep brain stimulators

This study looks at how the location of a deep brain stimulator in Parkinson’s disease affects movement problems. It mainly uses advanced 7T brain imaging to compare brain activity and motor symptoms.

Testing new brain-stimulation patterns for Parkinson’s with DBS

This study tests whether different deep brain stimulation settings can improve symptoms in people with Parkinson’s who already have an implanted DBS system in the subthalamic nucleus (STN). To join, you must already have the specific Medtronic device and show good brain signal and symptom response after surgery.

Study of the Vercise brain stimulator for dystonia

This study looks at how well a specific implanted brain stimulator (the Vercise system) works for people with dystonia. It may help confirm whether the device improves symptoms and is safe for eligible patients.

Study tests new stimulation settings for advanced Parkinson’s

This study looks at whether changing how deep brain stimulation (DBS) pulses are delivered can improve symptoms in people with advanced Parkinson’s disease. You may be eligible if you already have a specific Boston Scientific DBS device and have had it implanted for at least 3 months.

Testing a new way to use deep brain stimulation at home

This study tests a new type of brain stimulation called patterned stimulation for people with Parkinson's who already have a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device. It aims to see if using this special stimulation at home is safe and comfortable.
