Multi-session neurofeedback with implanted deep brain stimulation electrodes in Parkinson's disease patients
This exploratory study investigated the feasibility of repeated neurofeedback sessions using implanted DBS systems in 8 Parkinson's disease patients, where real-time visual feedback of beta oscillations from the subthalamic nucleus allowed patients to attempt regulation of neural activity across three separate days. Results showed significant beta power reduction in sessions 1 and 3, with dopaminergic medication negatively impacting downregulation performance while DBS stimulation enhanced it.
