NCT05910008

Brief Summary

During deep brain stimulation procedures in Parkinson's disease (PD), the most important prognostic element is the positioning of the surgical electrode in the subthalamic nucleus which is the anatomical target. The main objective of this project is therefore to compare 2 techniques thanks to a prospective comparative randomised open-label study: the use of O-ARM to acquire stereotactic imaging directly in the operating room and the standard technique requiring stereotactic imaging to be performed in the radiology department.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The absolute accuracy of Deep Brain Stimulation electrode implantation

    The radial distance between the theoretical target and the electrode in the plane of the target regardless of the chosen trajectory (central, anterior, lateral). This distance corresponds to the minimum error between the target and the electrode. This measurement is made from the postoperative brain scan.

    48 hours

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • The anatomical accuracy of Deep Brain Stimulation electrode implantation

    48 hours

  • Central and alternate position of the electrodes rate

    1 day

  • Surgical Times

    1 day

  • Clinical effectiveness

    6 months

  • Daily dose of Levodopa decrease

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)
