简要总结
Objective of the study:
To test the efficacy of theta burst cerebellar stimulation on dual task walking in Parkinson's disease using a cross-over design and wearing sensors technology
Design:
Twenty Parkinson's disease patients with no dementia will be recruited for a cross-over sham-controlled study. Each patient will undergo a sham stimulation or a single session of cerebellar theta burst stimulation with a wash out period of at least 14 days.
Each patient will be evaluated before and after stimulation by a battery of gait and movement tests using wearing sensors technology .
详细描述
There are no medical effective treatments for dual-task gait in Parkinson's disease. Imaging, neurophysiology and pathology studies suggested cerebellum as possible target of brain stimulation for dual-task walking for theta Burst repetitive Transcranial magnetic stimulation
Objective of the study:
To test the efficacy of theta burst cerebellar stimulation on gait in Parkinson's disease using a cross-over design and wearing sensors technology
Design:
Parkinson's disease patients able to walk and without dementia/behavioral disturbances will be recruited for a cross-over sham-controlled study. Each patient will undergo a sham stimulation or a single session of cerebellar theta burst stimulation with a wash out period of at least 14 days.
