Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Programming Deep Brain Stimulation for the treatment of Essential Tremor can be a time intensive process. Using an atlas created using functional tremor responses in the operating room to determine the optimal settings would lead to a faster response for the patient and improved quality of life.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: DBS programming, standard of care

DBS settings determined from the standard Neurologist symptomatic response, first

Device: Change DBS programming
Patient will change thier settings to move from one group to the other to trial the other DBS settings

Experimental: DBS progamming from Atlas

DBS settings determined from the a functional atlas only,first

Device: Change DBS programming
Patient will change thier settings to move from one group to the other to trial the other DBS settings

Outcome Measures

  1. Fahn-Tolusa-Marsden tremor rating scale [1 month]

    Tremor quantification

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Total Energy delivered [1 month]

    Summed DBS settings to determine total energy used
