Vibration Impact on Parkinson's Tremor

Parkinson Disease Clinical Trial

Official title: Vibration Impact on Parkinson's Tremor

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to test the safety, tolerability and efficacy of vibration (delivered by an experimental device called RMBand that is worn on the subject's arm) on parkinsonian tremor. The RMBand was developed by Resonate Forward, LLC (RF). This RMBand is designed to administer a vibration to the wearer to decrease or stop tremor in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD).

Clinical Trial Description

Participation will be completed in one visit at VCU Parkinson's and Movement Disorders Center. A baseline Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) will be taken prior to vibration therapy. The RMBand (experimental device) will be placed on the arm of the participant to provide the vibration therapy. The MDS-UPDRS Part III will be repeated both during and after the therapy. Participants will be asked to provide feedback about the device, the therapy session and how they are feeling. ;
