Brief Summary:
Transcranial magnetic stimulation TMS is a procedure that has been shown to improve pain in chronic sufferers It is a well-tolerated procedure that can be performed on an outpatient basis It uses a plastic covered coil that sends a magnetic pulse through the skull into the brain and by targeting particular areas in the brain it can be used to help modulate the perception of pain
The study intends to use this technique to treat such a disabling symptom in patients who suffer from Parkinsons Disease PD Initially the aim is to study this technique in ten patients who are suffering from pain and have PD These patients would initially require an MRI scan which allows us to map the brain and target the correct brain areas for the delivery of the stimulation The stimulation would be performed over ten sessions and the patients would be assessed by a clinician using well recognized clinical tools
It is anticipated that there will be a meaningful improvement in pain It is also anticipated that TMS is a safe technique to use in patients with PD The study will be used to help plan a future study that compares TMS with sham technique to prove whether TMS could be an option in the treatment of such a disabling condition
