Closed-loop DBS in Parkinson's Disease

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Parkinson Disease
Registration Number
NCT06012461
Lead Sponsor
Tsinghua University
Brief Summary

Closed-loop DBS is an emerging neuromodulation pattern in Parkinson's disease with dyanmic adjustment of stimulation parameters to patients' disease fluctuations and state of activity. The purpose of this study is to verify the long-term safety and effectiveness of closed-loop DBS. Through comparing with open-loop DBS, the study also determine whether closed-loop DBS is more effective than conventional open-loop DBS on PD treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Movement disorders evaluation1-3 days

Using MDS-UPDRS III rating scale (0-132, the higher score means a worse outcome) and Rush dyskinesia rating scale (0-12, the higher score means a worse outcome) combined with IMU to evaluate the motor function improvement under both closed-loop DBS and open-loop DBS condition

Sleep Structure Evaluation1-3 nights

Using polysomnography evaluation (sleep efficiency,N1/N2/N3/REM/Wake after sleep onset duration and percentage,arousal index) and subjuective sleep quality rating scale to evaluate the sleep improvement under both closed-loop DBS and open-loop DBS condition

Diary Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease1-3days

Using SCOPA-DC (0-87, the higher score means a worse outcome) to evaluate the diary outcomes under both closed-loop DBS and open-loop DBS condition

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety (Stimulation-related AEs) and Subjective Satisfactory1-3days

Number of modulation related Adverse Events or abnormal vital signs.

Total Electrical Energy Delivered to patients1-3days

To evaluate the energy changes in closed-loop DBS and open-loop DBS modualtion
