15 patients diagnosed with PD were included in this study. The patient's characteristics were as following: 12 males, 3 females; age 63.4 ± 1.9 years; disease duration 12.7 ± 1.1 years; pre-operative UPDRS III off levodopa: 46.5 ± 3.9, on levodopa: 22.8 ± 2.1. The experiment took place 3–6 days (median 4 days) after lead externalisation. The mean beta frequency peak, which was also selected for the online task was at 18.8 ± 1.1 Hz.
