Summary

Individuals with Parkinson's Disease (PD) often have motor difficulties that can negatively impact daily activities and their quality of life. Research has shown that to slow the progression of these symptoms, patients should partake in effective physical rehabilitation. However, effective physical rehabilitation has many barriers, including timing, cost, and other personal or system-level challenges. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the haptic remote rehabilitation system for patients with PD using a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in a field environment.

Conditions

  • Parkinson's Disease (PD)

Interventions

DEVICE

Haptic device

Participants will receive a custom-made handheld haptic device, which will be used to perform selected movement tasks. The device can generate the feeling of directional feedback.

DEVICE

Non-haptic device

Participants will receive a handheld device similar to the haptic group. However, the device in this intervention will not provide any haptic feedback.
