A Home Program Using Multimodal Sensory Feedback for People With Parkinson Disease

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Parkinson Disease

In brief

People with Parkinson Disease (PWPD) have significant problems with velocity, safety and dual tasking during walking that may be secondary to poor automaticity. Sensory functions, especially visual dependence and proprioceptive integration are critical for efficient walking and are often impaired. This home program compares the use of multimodal sensory feedback during stepping and balance exercises in PWPD to a group without the sensory feedback performing the same basic exercises.
