Cognitive decline after deep brain stimulation: an MRI study
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have Parkinson's disease and are scheduled for deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery
- You do not have uncorrected vision or hearing problems
- You are not pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the study
- You have no history of other brain conditions (like stroke, head injury, or seizures) or claustrophobia
- You do not have metal implants that are not safe for MRI

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether deep brain stimulation (a surgical treatment for Parkinson’s disease) affects thinking and memory over time. It compares Parkinson’s participants to people without Parkinson’s to better understand what changes happen with treatment.
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.
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.
This study looks at factors that predict how well deep brain stimulation (DBS) works for people with Parkinson's disease. If you are considering DBS, joining this research could help doctors better understand who benefits most from the procedure.
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 uses MRI scans to look at brain activity in people with Parkinson's disease who have a Medtronic Percept DBS device. The goal is to better understand how deep brain stimulation works.
