Brain recordings during sleep with deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at brain activity during sleep in people with Parkinson's who have a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device. It aims to understand how different DBS settings affect sleep, which may help improve treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (idiopathic type).
- You have a Medtronic Percept PC DBS device implanted in a brain region called the subthalamic nucleus, and your settings have been stable for at least 3 months.
- You have some sleep-related symptoms (like trouble sleeping or daytime sleepiness) that you rate as mild or more.
- You can walk without help.
- You do not have another brain condition (like stroke or multiple sclerosis), active sleep disorders, dementia, or substance abuse issues.

This study looks at how deep brain stimulation (a treatment that uses small electrical pulses to help with Parkinson's symptoms) affects sleep and daytime function. It aims to better understand how the brain area being stimulated works during waking and sleeping, which could help improve this treatment for patients.
This study records brain activity during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery for Parkinson's disease to better understand how the brain controls actions. It might help improve future treatments.
This study uses special recordings during deep brain stimulation surgery to better understand how movement gets easier in Parkinson’s disease. It may help researchers improve how this therapy is used for advanced symptoms.
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 brain signals during awake deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery for Parkinson's disease. The goal is to learn how these signals can help guide the placement of electrodes to improve treatment.
This study tests a new way of delivering deep brain stimulation (DBS), which uses a small device implanted in the brain to reduce Parkinson's symptoms. The device sends electrical pulses that may be different on each side of the brain, which could better suit each person's needs. Participating may help doctors learn if this approach improves movement and quality of life.
