Study Summary
The study design is a within-subject randomized cross-over design to evaluate the effects of DBS on sleep architecture, as measured by polysomnography, and on wake-time vigilance, as measured by a virtual reality street-crossing simulator.
Primary Outcome
Phase I subjects will undergo 2 sleep studies, one with the stimulator "on" at the subject's stable, clinically effective settings and one with the stimulator "off." Phase 2 subjects will spend the first night in the sleep lab with DBS turned off. The order of the high and low frequency nights (on the second and third study nights) will be randomized.
