Phase
NA
Status
RECRUITING
Sponsor
Beijing Tiantan Hospital
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Enrollment
60 participants
Conditions
Parkinson's Disease and Parkinsonism
Interventions
microelectrode stimulation of DBS

Plain-Language Summary

The trial aims to clarify how deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus controls Parkinson's motor symptoms and to evaluate the mechanism and application of an MRI-compatible dual-channel DBS system. It uses microelectrode-guided bilateral STN DBS with a 3.0T-compatible G106R/G106RS device, delivering continuous electrical pulses to rebalance abnormal motor circuits, which can reduce tremor, rigidity, and slowness and often lets people lower their levodopa dose. Participants should be adults 50 to 70 years old with typical Parkinson's for less than 20 years who plan bilateral STN DBS, have no major cognitive impairment (MMSE ≥24, MoCA ≥18), and have no medical or MRI contraindications to surgery.
