Post-Physical Therapy Extension of In-Home Dynamic Standing Table Use in Parkinson Disease

Summary

When postural imbalance and gait difficulties emerge in subjects with Parkinson disease, patients are typically referred for a number of physical therapy sessions. However, there is a critical gap in clinical practice on what to do once patients have completed their therapy sessions. To fill this gap, the study team has developed a standing table with a tabletop system that encourages weight shifting during upright standing ("dynamic standing table"), and therefore may be a unique means to increase daily physical activity by integrating the system with routine desktop activities of daily living. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a post-physical therapy in-home physical activity program using the dynamic standing table (as an adjunct to post-physical therapy standard of care-weekly physical activity group sessions) is effective in sustaining the mobility benefits of physical therapy in individuals with Parkinson disease.
