Study Summary
This study aims to recruit patients already implanted with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders to complete tasks assessing parameters of motor output, speech, and swallowing functions, both with and without stimulation. DBS parameters would be adjusted prior to motor testing. Patients would then participate in multiple sessions performing contralateral upper extremity movement tasks measuring movement speed, grip strength, and strength modulation, facial movement, swallowing, and speech tasks.
Primary Outcome
The investigators will use the Box and Blocks Test (unit counts) and Brinkmann Test (unit counts) to measure hand dexterity. Based on the preliminary data, the investigators will consider the number of participants with an 18% change in hand dexterity as minimally acceptable for improvement. Based on the preliminary data, the investigators will consider the number of participants with an improvement of 10% in the rate to be minimally acceptable.
