Deep Brain Stimulation for Visuomotor Function in Parkinson's Disease
Recruiting
Inability to align and refocus the eyes on the objects at different depths, i.e., vergence impairment, frequently affects the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease. Our study aims to understand the location-specific effects of subthalamic region deep brain stimulation on vergence by integrating the patient-specific deep brain stimulation models and high-resolution eye-tracking measures. The knowledge gained will allow us to find the most beneficial stimulation location and paramet... Read More

Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for Movement Disorders
Recruiting
Background: - Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an approved surgery for certain movement disorders, like Parkinson's disease, that do not respond well to other treatments. DBS uses a battery-powered device called a neurostimulator (like a pacemaker) that is placed under the skin in the chest. It is used to stimulate the areas of the brain that affect movement. Stimulating these areas helps to block the nerve signals that cause abnormal movements. Researchers also want to record the brain function... Read More

Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy in Movement Disorders
Recruiting
Background: - In deep brain stimulation (DBS), a device called a neurostimulator is placed in the chest. It is attached to wires in parts of the brain that affect movement. DBS might help people with movement disorders like Parkinson s disease (PD), dystonia, and essential tremor (ET). Objective: - To provide DBS treatment to people with some movement disorders. Eligibility: - Adults 18 years and older with PD, ET, or certain forms of dystonia. Design: * Participants will be screened with... Read More

Registry of Deep Brain Stimulation With the VERCISE™ System: Vercise DBS Registry
Recruiting
The purpose of this registry is to compile characteristics of world-wide outcomes for the use of Boston Scientific's commercially available Vercise DBS System in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The utilization of Image Guided Programming (IGP), and other commercially available programming features, used as planning tools for the programming of patients with Boston Scientific's Vercise DBS System are also evaluated. Additionally, the utilization of the DBS Illumina 3D feature that may be... Read More

Vestibulopathy as a Cause of Imbalance in Parkinson
Recruiting
Balance problems and falls are common in people with Parkinson's disease but respond poorly to dopamine stimulating medications suggesting other causes. The main goal of this study is to assess whether imbalance and gait problems in people with Parkinson's disease may be related to vestibular (inner ear balance center) changes not related to loss of dopamine in the brain.
