Study aim
-
The effect of deep brain stimulation surgery on cognitive disorders in patients with Parkinson's
-
Design
-
This study includes a study on three groups of participants who are selected non-randomly and in a controlled manner:
1 Experimental group: Patients with Parkinson's candidate for deep brain stimulation surgery,
2 Control group : Patients with Parkinson's without the need for deep brain stimulation surgery,
3 Second control group: healthy people without Parkinson's disease and neurodegenerative diseases,
All three groups are selectively and non-randomly placed in the desired groups. We will have a sample size of 12 people in each group and a total of 36 cases. Clinical trial has two control groups, with parallel, non-random groups.
