NCT00552474

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bilateral stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) of the brain when using the ANS Totally Implantable Deep Brain Stimulation System as an adjunctive treatment for reducing some of the symptoms of Parkinson's Disease that are not adequately controlled with medication.
