AI generated eligibility summary. Written by an AI model from the official source data and checked on a sample basis. It can contain mistakes, so confirm anything important against the original source. How we use AI
Who might be able to join this trial:
- People who have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease using a specific standard set of diagnostic guidelines known as the UK Parkinson's Disease Society Brain Bank Criteria
- People whose Parkinson's disease has reached a stage where their symptoms fluctuate — meaning their condition switches between periods of better and worse control (both movement-related and non-movement-related symptoms)
- People who have been assessed before surgery and found to be a suitable candidate for a specific brain treatment called deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS)
- People who are currently taking medication that works on the dopamine system to manage their Parkinson's symptoms
- People who have already had the STN-DBS device implanted between 4 and 8 weeks before the study measurements are taken
Who may not be able to join:
- People who are older than 80 years of age
- People who have dementia, identified by a score of 24 or below on a standard memory and thinking test called the MoCA
- People who are currently experiencing active psychosis, or depression with thoughts of suicide
- People who have another significant physical health condition that is not currently stable
- People whose Parkinson's symptoms when off medication are so severe that they are unable to complete the study tasks — for example, severe painful muscle spasms or unbearable pain or anxiety (confirm with trial site)
- People who are currently taking part in another trial involving a medication or drug
- People who are not able to give their own informed consent to participate, such as those under legal guardianship
