Gait impairments are among the most common and impactful symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent technological advances aim to quantify these using low-cost wearable systems for use in either supervised clinical consultations or long-term unsupervised monitoring gait ecological environments. However, very few have been validated comparatively a criterion established validity.We developed two movement analysis solutions (3D full-body kinematics based on inertial sensors, smartphone...
Ecological evaluation of gait using mobile technologies provides crucial information regarding the evolution symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, reliability and validity such may be influenced by smartphone’s location on body. This study analyzed how smartphone affects assessment PD patients’ a free-living environment. Twenty patients (mean ± SD age, 64.3 10.6 years; 9 women (45%) performed 3 trials 250 m outdoor walk smartphones 5 different body locations (pants pocket, belt,...
<title>Abstract</title> Background Despite the long-term efficacy of high-frequency (HFS) subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) on appendicular symptoms, its benefit freezing gait (FOG) is less clear. Mechanisms and optimal therapeutic approaches to this type FOG remain unclear. Objective Assess acute post-surgery response levodopa Methods 17 PD STN-DBS patients with a score (item 3.11) ≥ 2 in MedON/StimON condition were evaluated under 5 experimental conditions, including low...
