A Novel Digital Music-based Autonomous Personalized Walking Intervention to Improve Gait and Walking Automaticity in Parkinson Disease (MyMusiQ)

21 de agosto de 2026 actualizado por: Boston University Charles River Campus
The purpose of this research study is to examine the effects of a 3-month personalized community-based walking program using a digital music-based device designed for self-directed gait training in people with Parkinson disease (PD). The study uses music cues delivered through this digital device to improve walking outcomes. The investigators want to know if personalized music cueing through the digital device can improve walking quality, walking ability, daily walking amount and intensity, and quality of life, while helping walking feel more automatic and require less mental effort. Participants will take part in this research study for approximately 18 weeks in total. During this time, participants will complete 4 study visits at designated research centers at Boston University, Washington University in St. Louis, or the University of Utah, depending on the site of enrollment.

Descripción detallada

The overall goal of this single-arm, multi-center repeated baselines study (N=162) is to examine how a personalized closed-loop music-based digital gait intervention, using MR-005 (MedRhythms, Inc.), improves gait quality, capacity, real-world walking performance, and gait automaticity in Parkinson disease (PD). Participants will complete a community-based, self-directed walking program using the digital music-based device 4 days a week for 12 weeks, designed to promote sustained walking beyond the use of the device.

This study builds on a stepwise investigation beginning with a proof-of-concept feasibility study (N=23) followed by a 6-week randomized controlled trial (RCT; N=44). This mechanistic-focused study will examine the substrates of a personalized approach that underlie changes in walking outcomes, as well as identify determinants that determine responsiveness to the intervention. This study is a critical next step to elucidate mechanistic understanding of closed-loop personalized gait approaches and to determine those with PD who benefit most.

Experimental: MyMusiQ (MMQ) Walking intervention
Participants use MR-005 (MedRhythms, Inc., Portland, ME) during self-directed, home/community-based walking for 12 weeks to improve walking outcomes.
Dispositivo: MR-005 (MedRhythms, Inc., Portland, ME)
MR-005 (MedRhythms, Inc., Portland, ME) is a personalized, closed-loop, autonomous music-based digital gait intervention designed for self-directed gait training in Parkinson disease (PD). The system uses two shoe-worn gait sensors that communicate in real time with proprietary software on a touchscreen device, which controls the delivery of individualized, progressive rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS), provided as music cues through bone conduction headphones. The software operates autonomously and does not require manual input or adjustment by the patient or clinician during a session.

Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline 1
The PDQ-39 is a self-report questionnaire that assesses quality of life across 8 different dimensions. Items are scored based on a 5-point ordinal system with lower scores reflecting better quality of life (min = 0, max = 100).

Self-Efficacy of Walking - Duration (SEW-D)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline 1
The SEW-D is a self-report that will be administered to determine participants' beliefs of their physical capabilities to successfully complete incremental 5-minute intervals (5 to 40 minutes) of walking at a moderately fast pace, with responses made on 11-point Likert scale (0% = not at all confident; 100% = highly confident), with higher scores indicating higher confidence.

Activities-specific Balance Confidence (ABC)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline 1
This test is a questionnaire that measures an individual's confidence (in percentage) that he/she will not lose balance or become unsteady while performing physical activities. The scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater confidence.

Variability of Stride Time During MMQ Walking Program with Digital Music Device
Periodo de tiempo: During training (about 3 months)
Stride time variability will be measured during the MMQ walking program with the digital music device. Stride-to-stride variability of stride time of the gait cycle will be measured using integrated sensors from the music device. Stride time variability is calculated by dividing the standard deviation of stride time by the mean of stride time, multiplied by 100 to express as a percentage.
During training (about 3 months)
Speed During MMQ Walking Program with Digital Music Device
Periodo de tiempo: During training (about 3 months)
Speed (m/s) will be measured during the MMQ walking program with the digital music device. Speed will be measured using integrated sensors from the music device.
