Study Summary

Continuous deep brain stimulation (cDBS) is an established therapy for the major motor signs in Parkinson's disease. Currently, cDBS is limited to "open-loop" stimulation, without real-time adjustment to the patient's state of activity, fluctuations and types of motor symptoms, medication dosages, or neural markers of the disease. The purpose of this study is to determine if an adaptive DBS system, responding to patient specific, clinically relevant neural or kinematic feedback, is efficacious on the motor Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS III) and specific phenotypic measures in Parkinson's Disease compared to OFF therapy (i.e., OFF DBS and withdrawn from medication) and more efficient than cDBS. Not every recruited participant completed every part of the protocol.

Primary Outcome

Beta Band Power will be recorded continuously during intervention (30 minutes). The PC+S streams off power of the local field potential signal measured from the subthalamic nucleus in a frequency band of interest within the beta band (13-30 Hz). The amplitude of the signal, beta power, was streamed from each subthalamic nucleus (STN) during the calibration period of the experiment when DBS was off (i.e., OFF therapy), when continuous DBS was set at the lower and upper stimulation voltage that we
