Adapting rHIRE and Sleep Monitoring in Parkinson's Disease (NCT07498296)
Adapting High-Intensity Exercise and Sleep Monitoring Technology for Home Use in Parkinson's Disease
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Exercise is a primary intervention for symptom management in Parkinson's Disease (PD). However, challenges related to transportation, mobility, and socioeconomic factors often hinder consistent participation in exercise programs. To promote increased access and participation, remote exercise programs offer a promising solution. The investigators previously showed that laboratory-based, high-intensity resistance exercise improves sleep efficiency in individuals with PD in a randomized, controlled, clinical trial. The investigators aim to adapt this protocol for remote delivery and to evaluate the usability of a remote sleep-monitoring device in people with Parkinson's Disease (PwP). Guided by the IDEAS framework for digital health intervention design, the investigators will modify the exercise protocol to ensure safety, accessibility, and fidelity in a home setting. Specific aims include: (1) assessing the adaptability of the HIRE protocol for remote implementation through participant acceptability ratings, adherence, exertion levels, and safety outcomes, (2) evaluating the usability of the Waveband sleep monitoring headband and adherence to night wear schedules, and 3) gather qualitative feedback through semi-structured interviews to understand participant perspectives on protocol design, session completion, and safety. By integrating behavioral theory, participant engagement, and real-world constraints, this research will inform scalable, home-based interventions that are both effective and responsive to the lived experiences of PwP. The findings will lay the groundwork for future clinical trials and broader dissemination of remote therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative care.
