Testing brain effects after low-frequency stimulation in Parkinson’s

Parkinson Disease

Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.

This study looks at how Parkinson’s disease symptoms and brain thinking (neurocognitive function) may change after low-frequency stimulation from an implanted brain device. It may help researchers understand whether this specific stimulation pattern could improve thinking or brain-related symptoms.

Theta brain stimulation to boost thinking in Parkinson's

This study tests whether a special pattern of deep brain stimulation (called theta bursts) can improve thinking and memory in people with Parkinson's disease. It's for patients who already have a DBS device in their brain that is at least 3 months old.

Thinking and memory after brain stimulation for Parkinson's

This study looks at how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects thinking and memory in people with Parkinson's disease over time. It compares results from people who have DBS and those who receive only medication.

Studying brain sensing in advanced Parkinson’s during deep brain stimulation

This study looks at how the brain “filters” sensory information in people with advanced Parkinson’s disease, using brain imaging and deep brain stimulation (DBS) that you may already be getting as routine care. The goal is to better understand what drives Parkinson’s symptoms and how DBS might affect the brain.

Cognitive decline after deep brain stimulation: an MRI study

This study uses MRI scans to see how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects thinking and memory in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help researchers understand why some people experience cognitive changes after DBS surgery.

Brain stimulation for Parkinson's with thinking problems

This trial tests a brain stimulation technique (deep brain stimulation) to see if it can help people with Parkinson's disease who also have mild cognitive problems. The goal is to understand how stimulation affects both movement and thinking.

Testing brain-circuit targets during DBS surgery in Parkinson’s

This study looks at how brain connections involved in movement may relate to thinking and memory problems in Parkinson’s disease. It happens during a deep brain stimulation (DBS) operation, using tests while the surgeon is placing an electrode.
