NCT01682668

Brief Summary

This program aims to understand the role of the subthalamic nucleus in the control of the movement in healthy humans and patients with Parkinson's disease, how the STN dysfunction contributes to akinesia and how the STN stimulation improves motor signs in PD patients .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Firing rate of the subthalamic neurons

    Changes in the neuronal activity of the STN before, during and after the execution of an arm movement

    During surgery for bilateral STN stimulation

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Evoked related potentials of the STN

    3-5 days after surgery for bilateral STN stimulation

  • Biomechanical parameters of gait initiation

    6 months

Other Outcomes (2)

  • BOLD signal during fMRI

    1 month before surgery

  • real-life assessment

    1 month after surgery

Study Arms (1)

Frequency of subthalamic stimulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Comparison between healthy controls and PD patients (non-operable patients or who will be operated or already operated)

Procedure: Bilateral subthalamic stimulation

Interventions

Frequency of subthalamic stimulation

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (according to the criteria of the United Kingdom Parkinson's Disease Society Brain Bank)
  • Age between 18 and 70;
  • Motor complications in the form of fluctuations in motor state or dyskinesias induced by dopaminergic therapy, despite medical treatment optimum;
  • Other medical conditions that are stable or do not interfere with the procedure proposed;
  • Excellent responsiveness to levodopa (UPDRS motor score improvement greater than 50% in the acute levodopa test)
  • Brain MRI without abnormality
  • Normality of biological examinations
  • Person who has voluntarily and informedly agreed to participate in the study (signature of a written consent)
  • Patient with social health insurance
  • Evolutionary psychiatric pathology;
  • Dementia(MMS\<24/30);
  • Patients with a medical condition that makes surgery dangerous neuro-surgical;
  • Bleeding-promoting diseases and laboratory test abnormalities clotting;
  • Existence of contraindications to MRI (cardiac or neural pacemaker, clips ferromagnetic surgeries, implants and metal objects, foreign bodies intraocular, pregnancy, claustrophobia).
  • Taking drugs interfering with coagulation for 1 month before intervention.
  • +29 more criteria
