简要总结
This is a study to evaluate peripheral vibrotactile coordinated reset stimulation for Parkinson's disease seeks to explore the safety and efficacy of an experimental non-invasive method to aid in the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The purpose of the study is to verify the safety and tolerability of non-painful sensory (tactile) vibratory stimulation delivered to the fingertips of patients with Parkinson's disease.
详细描述
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a non-invasive, experimental method to aid in the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. A glove device produces non-painful sensory (tactile) vibratory stimulation to the fingertips of Parkinson's patients. Vibrotactile coordinated reset (vCR) will help investigators compare durability and efficacy of the tactile stimulation to current medical therapy. Participants will receive vCR for a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 13 and motor ability will be recorded. If the results of this study suggest that vibrotactile CR stimulation is safe and effective for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, this non-invasive treatment approach would have a substantial impact on Parkinson's disease.

结局指标
主要结局
Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III Score
时间窗: Baseline, 3 months
The MDS-UPDRS III is the sum of 33 scores that evaluate Parkinson's disease motor symptoms on a scale from 0 to 4 points. A score of 0 indicated no symptom is present and a maximum score of 4 indicates the most severe symptom, the total scale range is 0-132, where higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.
次要结局
- Levodopa Equivalent Daily Dose(Baseline, 3 months)
- Electroencephalography (EEG) Sensorimotor Relative Power Activity(Baseline, 3 months)
