Sensing in Sleep Deep Brain Stimulation

This prospective study will use the Percept sensing tools, collectively referred to as Brainsense, to correlate STN and GPi-LFP activity to sleep stages, characterize sleep events and evaluate the effects of DBS stimulation on sleep quality and sleep events. This study may help identify and validate novel biomarkers to assess sleep quality, REM behavior disorder,sleep fragmentation, and awakenings in patients with Parkinson's Disease, which will support overall DBS' efficacy beyond motor symptoms, and supplement interventions to improve sleep, and potentially also guide more effective DBS programming.
