About this session
This study explores the clinical potential of digital insoles for continuous, real-world gait assessment in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. We evaluated 21 PD patients using digital insoles and a reference system during ON and OFF levodopa states. Results showed excellent reliability for key gait parameters and sensitivity to medication effects. The technology offers potential for more frequent, objective assessments in clinical and home environments, aiming to improve personalized care strategies, enhance disease monitoring, and optimize treatment in PD.
