Summary

Sleep-wake disturbances are a major factor associated with reduced quality of life of individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD), a progressive neurological disorder affecting millions of people in the U.S and worldwide. The brain mechanisms underlying these sleep disorders, and the effects of therapeutic interventions such as deep brain stimulation on sleep-related neuronal activity and sleep behavior, are not well understood. Results from this study will provide a better understanding of the brain circuitry involved in disordered sleep in PD and inform the development of targeted therapeutic interventions to treat sleep disorders in people with neurodegenerative disease.

Conditions

  • Deep Brain Stimulation
  • Parkinson's Disease and Parkinsonism
  • Dystonia

Interventions

OTHER

Clinically optimized deep brain stimulation

Participants will have DBS implanted as standard-of-care. We will be examining the effects of their regular clinical stimulation settings versus no stimulation.
