Pediatric Deep Brain Stimulation Registry
This study is creating a registry (a collection of information) about children and teenagers who have received or will receive deep brain stimulation (DBS). DBS is a surgery that places a device in the brain to help control movement disorders. Because there isn't much information about how DBS works in children, this registry will gather data from many hospitals to help researchers understand its safety and effectiveness for conditions like dystonia, epilepsy, cerebral palsy, Tourette syndrome, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The goal is to improve DBS as a treatment option for young patients. You can join if you are between 0 and 18 years old and have had or are scheduled for DBS for a neurological movement disorder. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
