What this study is
The purpose of this research is to determine if the electrophysiologic data collected from standard-of-care microelectrode recordings during human deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery will be the same using the MAVEN device compared with the standard Alpha Omega device with either a tungsten standard-of-care microelectrode (for microelectrode recordings), or a carbon-fiber microelectrode (for neurotransmitter recordings). The number of microelectrodes used for both the tungsten and the carbon-fiber version will be the same as the standard-of-care.
What's being tested
- Multifunctional Apparatus for Voltammetry, Electrophysiology, and Neuromodulation (MAVEN)
Intervention · DEVICE
During deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery, the MAVEN device will be used in parallel with the currently used Alpha Omega Device to compare the quality of electrophysiologic readings.
