Revision of Deep Brain Stimulator in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

Exploring Deep Brain Stimulator adjustments for Parkinson's disease patients.

Phase N/A
**Study Overview:** *Parkinson's disease* is a condition that gets worse over time and affects how the brain controls movement. It happens when certain brain cells that make a chemical called *dopamine* stop working well. *Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)* is a treatment where a device is placed in the brain to help control symptoms like shaking or stiffness when medications don't help enough. In this study, doctors are looking at two ways to replace the battery of the DBS device. One way uses *general anesthesia*, which puts you to sleep completely during surgery. The other way uses *regional anesthesia*, which makes only part of your body numb while you're still awake. The study will check which method helps with pain and how happy patients are with the results. **Key Points:** - Participants must be between 40-85 years old and have a certain health score called ASA I-II-III. - The study compares two anesthesia methods for battery replacement surgery. - It's important to consider the potential risks of anesthesia and how it may affect you.

Note: If you are interested, ensure you meet the eligibility criteria and understand the potential risks and benefits involved.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
