Kinematic and Neural Dynamics of Postural Instability in Parkinson's Disease
NCT06405334
This study is recruiting at 1 US site in 1 state, according to its ClinicalTrials.gov record last updated .
Summary
Balance problems and falls are among the most common complaints in Veterans with Parkinson's Disease (PD), but there are no effective treatments and the ability to measure balance and falls remains quite poor. This study uses wearable sensors to measure balance and uses deep brain stimulation electrodes to measure electric signals from the brain in Veterans with PD. The investigators hope to use this data to better understand the brain pathways underlying balance problems in PD so that new treatments to improve balance and reduce falls in Veterans with PD can be designed.
