Remote Dynamic Cycling for the Customized Off-site Rehab in Parkinson's Disease
This research will develop novel and accessible way to deliver effective and customized rehab to those suffering from common and devastating neurodegenerative condition called Parkinson's disease. The investigators will examine the efficacy of novel rehab technique that can be monitored and modified in real-time but over virtual interface using a …
Effects of RAS on Gait in PD Patients With DBS
Participants will be asked to walk along with the metronome beats (RAS) during the participants' stimulation state (ON or OFF) for four minutes for each state. The researcher will collect the gait parameters (cadence, velocity, and stride length) of patients before, during, and after RAS in both DBS ON and …
SPEECH as Biomarker for Emotion, Movement and cOgnition in Parkinson's Disease
With this study, the investigators want to investigate whether computerized speech analysis can be used to reliably and objectively detect motor, emotional, and cognitive fluctuations in Parkinson's disease patients.
6 Month Follow up Study on the Changes of Postural Stability in Parkinsonian Patients in Response to High Frequency TMS.
Postural instability is one of the cardinal signs in Parkinson's disease (PD). It represents one of the most disabling symptoms in the advanced stages of the disease. It is associated with frequent falls and loss of independence. The aim of the current study is to assess the long term efficacy …
Effect of Adding Computerized Cognitive Training on Balance, Locomotion and Cognition in Parkinson's Disease
BACKGROUND: Postural instability and gait abnormalities are cardinal features in Parkinson's disease (PD). It represents one of the most disabling symptoms in the advanced stages of the disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the immediate and long-term effects of adding computer-based cognitive training to physical therapy interventions …
Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset: A Non-invasive Treatment for Parkinson's Disease 2
The purpose of our study is to evaluate Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset stimulation (vCR) and its effects on motor function in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). vCR will be administered with a device called the Vibrotactile (VT) Touch device. vCR can be used in conjunction with medication and is expected to …
The Effect of Compensation Strategies on Gait Impairment in Parkinson's Disease
Gait disturbances are disabling and common in Parkinson's disease (PD). Patients use many different, and typically self-developed, strategies to compensate for their walking abnormalities. There is a wide variety of compensatory strategies, of which external and internal cueing are the most commonly known. External cueing refers to externally produced predictive …
Montelukast in Parkinson Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease (AD). Clinical manifestations of PD can vary, but a formal diagnosis relies on the presence of bradykinesia with rigidity and/or rest tremor according to Movement Disorder Society (MDS) criteria for PD. Non-motor symptoms, such as hyposmia, constipation, …
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation(rTMS) Regulating Slow-wave to Delay the Progression of Parkinson's Disease
At present, no drug therapy has been proven to delay the progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). rTMS, as a non-invasive neuromodulation method, can regulate Slow-wave sleep (SWS). SWS is recognized closely related to neurodegeneration. However, there has been no clinical studies on if rTMS could delay the progression of PD …
Globus Pallidus Stimulation to Treat Insomnia
Researchers are to determine if turning on an additional unilateral DBS (deep brain stimulation) electrode with stimulation to the globus pallidus externa (GPe) region of the brain will improve insomnia (sleep).
