  • Change in MDS-UPDRS Part III Total Score (OFF Medication State)Baseline up to 6 weeks

    The MDS-UPDRS Part III is a clinician-administered assessment of motor function in Parkinson's disease. It includes 18 items with 33 individual ratings, each scored from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe), with a total score range of 0 to 132. Higher scores indicate worse motor impairment. Assessments will be conducted in the OFF-medication state by trained, blinded raters using standardized procedures. The outcome measure is defined as the change from baseline in total score at post-treatment milestones (after Sessions 5, 10, 15, and 20), comparing active versus sham groups.

  • Incidence of Serious Adverse Device Events (SADEs)Baseline up to 6 weeks

    Number and proportion of participants experiencing Serious Adverse Device Events (SADEs), including severity and relationship to the investigational device, assessed from baseline through completion of 20 treatment sessions.
