Deep brain stimulation study for Parkinson's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult with Parkinson's disease.
- You are scheduled to have deep brain stimulation surgery at Grenoble University Hospital.
- You agree to receive a Medtronic PERCEPT stimulator as part of your routine care.
- You can read and speak French well enough to fill out questionnaires.
- You do not have other conditions (like severe depression or dementia) that would make it hard to take part.
- You are not currently in another research study.

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.
This trial tests whether deep brain stimulation (a surgical treatment that uses electrical pulses to calm overactive brain areas) can help people in the early stages of Parkinson's disease. If you join, you'll get either the stimulation or a placebo (inactive) treatment, and the study will see if it improves your symptoms.
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 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 follows people with Parkinson's disease who are having a surgical procedure called deep brain stimulation (DBS), where thin electrodes are placed in the brain to help control movement symptoms. Researchers will track how well the surgery works and how it affects daily activities.
This study tests an adaptive brain stimulation device to help restore better sleep in people with Parkinson’s disease. You may be eligible if your Parkinson’s motor symptoms are severe despite best medical treatment and you are already being considered for a specific deep brain stimulation surgery.
