Attention and eye movement in Parkinson's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how attention and eye movements work in people with Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, or dystonia. It tests abilities during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery and when DBS settings are changed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 19 and 90 years old.
- You can see well enough (with glasses or contacts) to look at faces on a screen.
- You can use a button or computer mouse to make choices.
- You are scheduled to get a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device for Parkinson's, essential tremor, or dystonia.
- You are willing to do tasks during awake surgery or during DBS setting changes.

This study looks at how brain and speech networks work while people with Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, or dystonia are getting deep brain stimulation (DBS). It may help doctors better understand and possibly improve speech outcomes for people receiving DBS.
This study looks at whether deep brain stimulation surgery can help people with certain movement problems, chosen by a specialized team. You may be considered if medicines (or other treatments) aren’t controlling your symptoms well enough or if the condition causes major disability.
This study tests a new, smarter way to adjust your DBS settings using your brain's own signals (local field potentials). It may help better control persistent symptoms like speech problems, freezing, or
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.
This study records brain activity during movement in people with Parkinson's who have a special deep brain stimulation (DBS) device. It aims to understand how brain rhythms relate to movement, which could improve future treatments.
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.
