Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to design, implement, and clinically assess a portable, user worn system for monitoring Parkinson's disease (PD) motor symptoms. The current standard in evaluating symptoms is the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), a subjective, qualitative ranking system. The main goal of this research is to develop a quantitative system, Kinesia HomeView, to assess tremor as well as different features of bradykinesia in a home based system which can capture those symptom changes over the course of a day and aid in evaluating treatment protocol efficacy.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

•Clinical diagnosis of Parkinson's disease

Exclusion Criteria

•Inability to follow the required clinical instruction
•Subjects with cognitive impairments that would prohibit them from properly using the Kinesia HomeView system
