Study Summary

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effect of deep brain stimulation in the the globus pallidus (Gpi) and the subthalamic nucleus (STN) on motor, neuropsychological and psychiatric function, and quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Primary Outcome

The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) is a commonly used survey tool used to assess symptom severity of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). It covers several different domains including 1) thought, behavior and mood 2) activities of daily living 3) motor activity 4) complications of therapy and others. The mean change from baseline to six months after DBS surgery for patients with DBS in the GPi vs the STN will be compared after being adjusted for differences in age and time s
