NCT ID:
NCT03422757
Brief Summary:
This is an exploratory study to preliminary assess safety and efficacy of an adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) closed-loop method in patients with PD.
The study has been designed as a double blind randomized crossover trial that uses conventional DBS as a concurrent control in PD patients in need of Implantable Pulse Generator (IPG) replacement.
Detailed Description:
PD patients in need of IPG replacement will be screened to identify the ones eligible for enrollment.
Randomized patients will undergo 2 days of experimental sessions (i.e. one per each type of stimulation mode, cDBS and aDBS), in a well-controlled environment (i.e. during hospitalization). During each experimental session experienced neurologists will collect information on safety and efficacy endpoints.
