Conditions

Summary

This study will help us better understand how the brain works in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is a brain disease that gets worse over time, and affects over 10 million people world-wide. A common treatment for PD is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). To improve DBS therapy for PD, we need a deeper understanding of how the different parts of the brain work together in PD, and how this relates to movement and thinking problems that people with PD experience. We may be able to use the results of this study to improve DBS treatments in the future.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study examines how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects the patterns of electrical activity in the brain of people with Parkinson's disease. By recording brain signals during and after DBS therapy, researchers hope to better understand how the device works and develop more personalized, effective stimulation programs for patients. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been diagnosed with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (Parkinson's that is not caused by another condition) - You are 21 or older - You are scheduled to receive DBS surgery as part of your standard clinical care at the University of Minnesota **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have another significant neurological disorder in addition to Parkinson's - You have a history of dementia - You experienced serious post-operative complications from DBS surgery - You are pregnant - You have had significant radiation exposure within the past year that would make additional intraoperative fluoroscopy (X-ray imaging during surgery) unsafe Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
