简要总结
The purpose of this research is to examine the possible causes and signs of freezing of gait (FOG) secondary to Parkinson's disease (PD). To achieve this, the study will use the novel (on-label and FDA-approved) local field potential (LFP) measuring capability of the Medtronic Percept™ deep brain stimulation (DBS) system to compare oscillatory activity in people who have Parkinson's disease, with and without freezing of gait (FOG). This will be conducted as three separate experiments, participants may volunteer for one or more experiments:
Experiment 1: The first experiment will compare LFPs during gait initiation with and without a cue, in people with (PD+FOG) and without FOG (PD-FOG).
Experiment 2: The second experiment will compare LFPs during the successful movement transitions vs. freezing-events during a FOG provocation course in people with FOG.
Experiment 3: The third experiment will compare LFPs during rapid alternating movements of the wrist and/or foot, in people with and without FOG

Number of freezing episodes
时间窗: During the intervention
Kinematics will be measured using 6 inertial measurement units (IMUs, Opal sensors, APDM), containing triaxial accelerometers, gyro-scopes, and magnetometers, on each foot and wrist, the fifth lumbar vertebra, and the sternum. This system has been validated for use in PD gait to provide measures of gait (velocity, stride length mean and SD, cadence, and stride time mean and SD), gait initiation (measures of APA and 1 st step characteristics) and turning. Kinematic data will be collected at 128 Hz and synchronized to video recordings and LFP data. LFP and kinematic data will be classified by transition type: initiation, turning, and doorways, and compared during successful transitions, and freezing episodes (unsuccessful transitions). Number of freezing episodes will be identified and rated qualitatively from the videotape by a blinded rater.
