Novel Shoe Device NUSHU to Measure Gait Analysis in Parkinson's Patients
Using the NUSHU Shoe to Analyze Gait Balance and Vibrotactile Feedback in Early, Moderate and Advanced PD Patients and Healthy Controls
About This Trial
Gait changes in Parkinson's disease are complex, variable, and difficult to detect during short clinic assessments. The aim of this study is to collect gait measurements in Parkinson's patients through sensors in a novel shoe device, NUSHU by Magnes AG. The shoe additionally provides vibrational feedback that can potentially help gait difficulties experienced by Parkinson's patients.

NUSHU shoe
The NUSHU shoe, created by Magnes AG, can measure real-time detection of gait analysis while providing vibrotactile stimulus to the study participant through machine learning sensors. This may provide a feedback mechanism that acts as therapy for gait difficulties.
