Trials of Transcranial Stimulation for the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease

Abstract

During the first year of the study, we have been mainly working on the protocol "Transcranial Electrical Polarization for the Treatment of Bradykinesia and Rigidity in Patients with Parkinson's Disease". This is one of three protocols of the grant. This protocol was approved by the Office of Research Protections USAMRMC on 03/06/2007. Since then 3 patients were recruited in the protocol. The data was collected in 2 of them during the period of 8 TEP sessions. These patients are still in the protocol, and the data from them will be collected at 1 and 3 months follow up visits.
