Phase
NA
Status
RECRUITING
Sponsor
University Hospital, Toulouse
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Enrollment
24 participants
Conditions
Parkinson Disease
Interventions
O-Arm Stereotactic imaging, Standard Stereotactic imaging

Plain-Language Summary

The goal is to see whether using intraoperative O-ARM 3D imaging helps surgeons place subthalamic nucleus DBS leads more accurately and therefore control motor fluctuations better than relying on conventional preoperative imaging. O-ARM is a CT-style scanner used during the operation to give real-time 3D views of the brain and the lead so the surgeon can check and adjust placement on the spot; the imaging itself does not change medications, but more precise lead placement can improve symptom control and reduce later programming or levodopa adjustments. The trial is looking for adults 18 to 75 with idiopathic Parkinson's who have motor fluctuations despite optimized meds and who are approved for STN DBS, excluding those with major cognitive decline, MRI contraindications, severe psychiatric disorders, pregnancy, inability to stop certain blood thinners, or legal incapacity to consent.
