EEG Recordings and Analysis in Parkinson's Patients: Towards Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation by Machine Learning

The objective of this protocol is to obtain on Parkinson's disease more accessible therapeutic targets than deep brain stimulation (HFS-STN), the neurosurgical treatment for this pathology. This study will pave the way for new forms of adaptive processing for the HFS-STN. It could become functionally coupled to a minimalist EEG centred on the motor cortex and to software for decoding, live or slightly delayed, classes of movements performed. On the one hand, this device could be used as a sensor of the quality of the information transmitted by the cortical network, thus allowing the selection of the optimal parameters of the HFS-STN on the basis of the movement decoding score. On the other hand, this device could lead to adapting the HFS-STN treatment over time by regularly calculating the recognition scores of the different movements performed and comparing them to the initial scores.
