Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Deep Brain stimulation (DBS) on walking in patients with Parkinson's disease that have had DBS. While DBS improves Parkinson's disease (PD) symptoms and walking in many patients in some of the patients walking problems persist. This study aims to find out what are the best stimulation parameters of the DBS in order to improve walking.
