Identifying and modulating distinct tremor states through peripheral nerve stimulation in Parkinsonian rest tremor

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021
Background Resting tremor is one of the most common symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Despite its high prevalence, resting tremor may not be as effectively treated with dopaminergic medication as other symptoms, and surgical treatments such as deep brain ...
