Speech and voice after brain stimulation in Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique (called HD-tDCS) can improve speaking and voice in people with Parkinson's disease. You will do speech tasks while receiving the stimulation to see if it helps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.
- English must be your first language.
- You need normal hearing and vision for your age to do the tasks.
- You cannot have other brain conditions besides Parkinson's.
- You cannot have had brain surgery, such as deep brain stimulation.
- You cannot have dementia.

This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can help improve movement problems in people with Parkinson's disease. If you have Parkinson's, this might be an option to explore.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation approach (tDCS) can improve thinking and memory in people with Parkinson’s disease. You may be invited because your Parkinson’s is typical and your memory testing shows you do not have dementia.
This study tests whether different types of gentle electrical stimulation on the scalp can help improve walking and balance problems in people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to find a better way to support rehabilitation.
This study tests whether automated analysis of your speech can help reduce speech problems caused by deep brain stimulation (DBS) in Parkinson’s disease. It may help your team adjust DBS settings to improve how you speak while keeping Parkinson symptoms controlled.
This study tests whether combining physical exercise with transcranial direct current stimulation (a non-invasive electrical stimulation of the brain) can improve movement and symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to see if this combination works better than exercise alone.
This is an extra part of the STIMPulseControl study that focuses on speech. It looks at how the brain stimulation treatment affects your ability to speak clearly and communicate.
