Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The primary purpose of this project is to determine the preliminary effectiveness of protective step training to improve balance and reduce falls in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and postural disturbances. A secondary purpose is to understand which baseline patient characteristics predict responsiveness to treatment. By informing 1) the effectiveness of a promising rehabilitative intervention, and 2) the selection of the participants that will be most responsive to treatment, these data may enhance clinicians' ability to treat balance disturbances in people with PD. Importantly, protective step training, described in this proposal, can be quickly deployed in the clinic at minimal cost. Therefore, if shown to be effective via this and subsequent trials, this approach can be easily integrated into care, immediately impacting a large number of people with PD.

Investigators

The overall officials registered on this study. Names that resolve to a findmyKOL profile link to it; the rest are shown as registered.

A profile link is shown only when the registered name resolves to a person record with a confident, namesake-checked match; ambiguous names stay unlinked.

Sites

1 registered facility, with the per-site recruitment status where the registry publishes one. ClinicalTrials.gov does not publish per-site enrollment counts.

United States
  • Arizona State University

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.
