Phase N/A
Parkinson's Disease Treadmill Training Study This study explores how treadmill training might help people with Parkinson's Disease (PD) improve their walking and balance. PD affects movement, causing unstable walking and falls in many patients. The study involves 12 treadmill sessions, sometimes using virtual reality or special movements to mimic real-world challenges. These sessions aim to improve how the brain and body work together to keep balance and prevent falls. Participants will have tests before, right after, and a bit later to see if there's improvement. They'll also use a phone app called "Walking Tall" to keep up with exercises at home. Researchers will look at changes in foot placement and brain activity to see if the training helps with walking stability. They'll also use sensors to track how participants move in their everyday lives and apply machine learning (a type of artificial intelligence) to understand which factors help or hinder improvement.
  • The study lasts for 12 sessions and involves follow-ups.
  • Participants need to be diagnosed with Parkinson's and meet specific health criteria.
  • Remote tools and a phone app will support ongoing exercises beyond the study.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
