Laser Light Cues for Gait Freezing in Parkinson's Disease
31 May 2009
The purpose of this study is to gather data to see if the Laser Cane and/or U-Step Walker with laser accessory is more effective in aiding with gait freezing than a regular cane/U-Step ... 
Sensory Cues for Freezing in Parkinson's Disease
31 May 2009
The purpose of this study is (1) to determine if patient triggered sensory(auditory, visual and tactile) cues can help treat freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease, and (2) to assess if unexpected ... 
Study of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease
31 May 2009
This study will examine the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on Parkinson's disease symptoms. rTMS is a way of stimulating the brain that may be able to change the ... 
Effects of Deep Brain Stimulation for the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
31 May 2009
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of unilateral deep brain stimulation on upper and lower extremity motor function in advanced Parkinson's disease patients. It is ... 
Effect of Robot-Assisted Gait Training on Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
06 Jan 2009
Freezing of gait (FOG) is a common yet poorly understood motor symptom in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD). Previous studies have shown that bilateral uncoordinated gait and gait ... 
Study of Magnetic Fields for Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
21 Oct 2008
The purpose of this study is to determine if low level magnetic fields may help to relieve symptoms of Parkinson's disease. ... 
The Use of Sensory or Motor Cues Using Electrical Stimulation to Reduce Gait Freezing in Patients With Parkinson Disease
22 Sep 2008
Some individuals with Parkinson disease experience "freezing" during walking which results in their inability to move their feet. They often have difficulty starting to move once they ... 
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to Treat Parkinson's Disease
12 Sep 2008
This study will look at the effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) on symptoms of Parkinson's disease. TMS is a method of brain stimulation that may be able to change the ... 
A Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) to Evaluate Use of an Individual Auditory Cueing Device's (IACD's) on Freezing and Gait in People With Parkinson's Disease (PD)
30 Jul 2008
The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of an IACD i.e. Apple iPod-shuffle, on freezing and gait speed in people with a diagnosis of PD through the implementation of a ... 
Motor Cortex Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
09 Mar 2008
Deep Brain Stimulation represents the golden standard for surgical treatment of Parkinson disease (PD), but it is not optimally effective for controlling every motor sign and adverse ...
