View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
The main objective of this observational trial is to explore the validity and reliability of DANU smart socks when used for mobility assessments in people with Parkinson's. Using a series of laboratory gold standard equipment, this project aims to compare the metrics observed by DANU to the reference standards. No intervention is included. Specifically, this study will explore metrics relating to walking (gait) and balance of a Parkinson's cohort through a series of motor tasks. Moreover, this study seeks to investigate the clinical validity of DANU outcome metrics exploring relationships with clinical scales, fall history and prospective falls.
