详细描述
Spinal cord stimulation has been used to treat gait problems in Parkinson's disease, with positive results along some studies. The use of non-invasive stimulation can be an alternative to stimulate the spinal corn. In this pilot trial, the investigators recruit participants with Parkinson' disease and freezing of gait. The aim of the study is to explore the safety along the non-invasive magnetic thoracic spinal cord stimulation as well the effect on gait problems, especially freezing of gait, prospectively, in an open-label fashion.

结局指标
主要结局
Freezing of gait score
时间窗: One week
The primary outcome is the freezing of gait score. 12-item scale, each item scores 3 points at maximum; the score ranges from 0-36; higher scores mean higher severity
次要结局
- Gait speed(baseline, 1 week, 4 week)
- Freezing of gait questionnaire(baseline, 1 week, 4 week)
- Safety of the intervention - urinary incontinence(1 week, 4 week)
- Safety of the intervention - lower limb strength.(1 week, 4 week)
