Summary: The study will explore the viability of an alternative/novel programming strategy in Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD).

Summary: The primary objective of this study is to characterize real-world clinical outcomes of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) using retrospective review of de-identified patient records.

Summary: The objective of this research study is to understand how Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) targeting the subthalamic nucleus (STN) affects cognitive networks in the brain, potentially leading to cognitive decline in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD). A total of 55 participants with PD who have undergone DBS surgery will be recruited from MUSC's Clinical DBS Program. Participants will attend two p...

Summary: A primary purpose of this study is to better understand what stimulation parameters work best for patients. For example, for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the Anterior Nucleus of the Thalamus (ANT), it is not clear what stimulation frequency leads is most effective. This study will help assess the effectiveness of low frequency or high frequency stimulation.

Summary: This is a study to find out if a cutting-edge technology called transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) can be used to treat how people with anxiety or related concerns cope with emotional situations. tFUS is a brain stimulation technology that causes temporary changes in the activity of deep brain areas without a need for any surgery or other permanent or invasive procedures. This study is recruit...

Summary: The purpose of this registry is to compile characteristics of world-wide outcomes for the use of Boston Scientific's commercially available Vercise DBS System in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The utilization of Image Guided Programming (IGP), and other commercially available programming features, used as planning tools for the programming of patients with Boston Scientific's Vercise DBS Sy...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of chronic ambulatory thalamus seizure detection. The sensitivity, specificity, and false alarm rate of thalamus seizure detection will be calculated using recordings from a deep brain stimulation system, assessed relative to concurrent gold-standard video-EEG monitoring collected in the in-patient setting (epilepsy monitoring unit), in 5 p...

Summary: This clinical investigation aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a home-based device providing electrical stimulation of the brain named transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS ) , in patients with chronic pain who have been transiently relieved by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation delivered at hospital (less than one month benefit). The general objective is to show that th...

Background: \- Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an approved surgery for certain movement disorders, like Parkinson's disease, that do not respond well to other treatments. DBS uses a battery-powered device called a neurostimulator (like a pacemaker) that is placed under the skin in the chest. It is used to stimulate the areas of the brain that affect movement. Stimulating these areas helps to block the nerve s...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of bilateral stimulation of the subcallosal cingulate white matter (SCCwm) using Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) as an adjunctive treatment of non-psychotic unipolar Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in adults.

Summary: This study employs an exploratory, prospective, single center, naturalistic clinical trial design with a randomized crossover intervention.

Summary: The objective of this research is to use advanced connectomic imaging models to identify disease-relevant axonal pathway targets for better tremor control in Parkinson's disease patients while avoiding undesirable side effects, with the goal of increasing precision and facilitating the choice of optimal DBS parameters for certain disease phenotypes. The investigators hypothesize that patient cente...
