Brain activity study for OCD or bipolar depression DBS
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how brain activity in a specific area affects your behavior and emotions. It aims to learn more about brain function in people getting DBS for OCD or bipolar depression, which could lead to better treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled to have deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery for OCD or bipolar depression.
- You agree to take part in study activities both in the hospital and in your home environment.
- Your DBS device must have a rechargeable battery (not a non-rechargeable one).

This trial studies whether placing a deep brain stimulation device can reduce symptoms in people with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) who did not improve with several standard treatments. It may help when medications and therapy have not worked well enough.
This study looks at how the brain processes approach and avoidance in people with severe OCD that hasn't improved with standard treatments. It aims to understand brain patterns that could help guide a future treatment called deep brain stimulation (DBS).
This trial tests a treatment called deep brain stimulation (DBS), which uses a device placed in the brain to send electrical signals that may help control OCD symptoms. It is for adults with OCD that has not improved after trying several standard treatments, such as SSRIs, clomipramine, and therapy.
This study tests a deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment device for adults with severe, long-lasting obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) that has not improved with standard treatments. It may help reduce OCD symptoms and improve daily functioning when medications and therapy have not worked.
This trial tests a new type of noninvasive brain stimulation called temporal interference stimulation for people with OCD. It may help reduce symptoms when standard medications have not worked well enough.
This trial uses a special PET scan to see how brain sugar use changes during deep brain stimulation for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It may help researchers understand what brain activity patterns relate to treatment response.
