Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this research study is to: 1. Determine whether deep brain stimulation (DBS) with two leads (very thin coiled wires) placed unilaterally (on one side of the brain) is beneficial to patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) tremor. 2. Compare the two different locations of the DBS lead placement in effectiveness for treatment of muscle tremors that do not respond to treatment with medication caused by multiple sclerosis. 3. Evaluate any side effects that may result from the two DBS leads.
