Detailní popis
The developed mobile application is a digital tool that provides automated, patient-specific metronome sounds and corresponding tactile vibrations to support optimal walking speed and rhythm. This study aims to investigate the effects of this external stimulus-supported gait training on walking performance and functional mobility in patients with Parkinson's disease in a single-center, controlled design.
Participants will be randomized into two groups: an experimental group receiving both auditory and tactile stimuli (vibration) via the mobile application, and a control group receiving standard gait training without any external stimuli. Both groups will undergo gait training for 30 minutes per day, 3 days a week, over a period of 6 weeks. Assessments will be conducted before and after the intervention by trained clinicians under standardized conditions. Walking and balance performance will be evaluated using the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) to assess functional mobility and dynamic balance, the Dual-Task TUG to assess cognitive-motor interaction, the 5-Times Sit to Stand Test (5xSST) to measure lower extremity functional strength, the Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS) to evaluate trunk control, and the Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I) to assess fall anxiety. Additionally, spatiotemporal walking parameters, including cadence, walking speed, and step count, will be analyzed using a separate gait analysis mobile application (Gait Analyzer).

Popis opatření |
Časové okno |
|---|---|---|
|
Gait Speed
Časové okno: Baseline and 6 weeks
|
Description: Assessed objectively using the Texas Instruments SensorTag wearable sensor. Participants walk over a level surface at their self-selected speed. The device captures the gait patterns, and the system records the mean gait speed. A higher value indicates better functional mobility and improvements following the dual-task training. Unit of Measure: centimeters/second (cm/s) |
Baseline and 6 weeks
|
|
Timed Up and Go Test (TUG)
Časové okno: Baseline and 6 weeks
|
Evaluates functional mobility and dynamic balance.
The time taken to stand up from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn, walk back, and sit down is recorded in seconds.
A shorter time indicates better functional mobility.
|
Baseline and 6 weeks
|
|
Dual-Task Timed Up and Go Test
Časové okno: Baseline and 6 weeks
|
Evaluates the effect of a cognitive dual-task on mobility.
Participants perform the standard TUG test while completing a simultaneous cognitive task (e.g., counting backward).
The time is recorded in seconds.
|
Baseline and 6 weeks
|
|
Freezing of Gait Questionnaire (FOGQ)
Časové okno: Baseline and 6 weeks
|
Evaluates freezing episodes and gait-related experiences.
It consists of 6 items evaluated on a 5-point Likert scale.
The total score ranges from 0 to 24.
Higher scores indicate more severe freezing of gait.
|
Baseline and 6 weeks
|
|
Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I)
Časové okno: Baseline and 6 weeks
|
Assesses the fear of falling during physical and social activities.
It consists of 16 items on a 4-point scale.
The total score ranges from 16 to 64.
Higher scores indicate a greater fear of falling.
|
Baseline and 6 weeks
|
|
Five Times Sit to Stand Test (5xSST)
Časové okno: Baseline and 6 weeks
|
Evaluates lower extremity functional strength.
The time taken to stand up and sit down five times as quickly as possible is recorded in seconds.
A shorter duration indicates better lower extremity strength.
|
Baseline and 6 weeks
|
|
Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS)
Časové okno: Baseline and 6 weeks
|
Evaluates trunk control, including static sitting balance, dynamic sitting balance, and trunk coordination.
The total score ranges from 0 to 23.
Higher scores indicate better trunk performance.
|
Baseline and 6 weeks
|
|
System Usability Scale (SUS)
Časové okno: 6 weeks
|
Evaluates the usability and user experience of the developed mobile application (assessed only in the experimental group).
It consists of 10 items on a 5-point Likert scale.
Higher scores indicate better usability.
|

|
Digital Competence Inventory for Older Adults
Časové okno: Baseline
|
Evaluates the digital competence of participants in using technological devices.
It consists of 24 items across four subscales: information literacy, communication and collaboration, safety, and problem-solving.
