Brain signals linked to Parkinson's neuropsychiatric symptoms
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at brain signals recorded by a Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) device in people with Parkinson's disease who also experience hallucinations, impulse control disorder, or panic disorder (episodic anxiety). The goal is to better understand these symptoms and potentially improve future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 75 years old.
- You must have a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.
- You must also have hallucinations, impulse control disorder, or panic disorder (episodic anxiety).
- You must have had a Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) device implanted (specifically a Medtronic Percept device) as part of your routine care.
- You must be able to speak English, understand the study procedures, and give your own consent.
- You cannot have other significant brain or psychiatric conditions (like schizophrenia, brain injury, or substance abuse) that might affect the results, and you cannot be taking part in other studies.

This study looks at brain signals related to motor and psychiatric changes in people with Parkinson's who are scheduled for deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. The goal is to better understand why symptoms fluctuate and how DBS may help.
This study is for people with Parkinson's disease who already have a deep brain stimulator (a device that sends electrical pulses to the brain) and still have motor fluctuations (times when symptoms come and go). The researchers want to see if adapting the device's settings can better control symptoms than the current standard settings.
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 looks at brain signals in people with Parkinson's who are already scheduled for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery. The goal is to better understand how certain brain pathways work, which could lead to improved treatments.
This study uses a brain scan called MEG to look at how Parkinson's disease and impulse control disorders affect brain networks in people who have already had deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. You will be asked to delay your morning medication so the researchers can study your brain without the effects of the drugs.
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.
