A System to Help With Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Patients (NCT07542743)

A Novel Instrument to Address Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Patients

๐ŸŸก Not Yet Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic โš™๏ธ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Barron Associates, Inc.

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the ParkinSense system, a customizable, multimodal, and adaptable cueing system, can assist with freezing of gait (FOG) in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main question it aims to answer is: is the percent of time spent frozen reduced when using the system compared to not using the system? Participants will be asked to take part in a single-visit laboratory study where they will wear the system in a controlled environment, followed by a two weeks of home use.
