Study Summary

A prospective cohort of patients scheduled to undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) implantation surgery for the treatment of Parkinson's disease as per standard of care will be invited to participate in this study. This mechanistic study is aimed at better understanding the role of basal ganglia beta band (11-35 Hz) oscillations and resonance in the manifestation of Parkinson's disease (PD) motor signs using closed-loop electrical neurostimulation, levodopa medication, and computational modeling. The ultimate goal of this study is to inform the development of closed-loop neuromodulation technology that can be programmed and adjusted in real time based on patient-specific neural activity.

Primary Outcome

The finger tapping speed will be measured with an inertial measuring unit. The relationship (slope/effect) between this kinematic variable (response variable) and the mean amplitude of beta (11-35 Hz) oscillations (predictor physiological variable) will be estimated via linear mixed-effects (LME) models. The LME models will include the stimulation conditions in this study (e.g., eiDBS-suppression) as fixed effects with the off-stimulation condition as a reference/control group, and random interc
