简要总结
Exploring directional lead
详细描述
This is a single-centre, double-blinded cross-over study comparing the standard electrode configuration (ring-mode) vs. directional electrode configuration for steered stimulation of deep brain stimulation (DBS) patients.
The study will follow 2 phases.
Phase 1:
Visit 1 Screening/Baseline (T0):
As per current standard care for patients undergoing subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS), participants will be screened 3-6 months before the DBS STN implant surgery (T0) according to the inclusion/exclusion criteria.
