Cue2Walk: Freezing detection and cues for Parkinson's walking
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a new device called Cue2Walk can help people with Parkinson's disease who have freezing of gait. The device detects when you freeze and sends a signal (like a beep) to help you start walking again. Researchers want to see if it is worth the cost compared to your usual care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease by a neurologist.
- You experience freezing of your walking (feeling stuck) at least once a day.
- You can walk for 5 minutes without help from another person (a cane or walker is okay).
- Your Parkinson's medications or deep brain stimulation settings have been stable for at least one month.
- You have not used the Cue2Walk device before and are not using any other cueing device at home.

This trial tests whether a spinal cord stimulator can reduce freezing of gait (feeling stuck when walking) in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help you if you have daily freezing episodes and are willing to have a small device implanted.
This study uses brain imaging to understand why some people with Parkinson's suddenly feel like their feet are glued to the floor (freezing of gait). It may help find better treatments for this symptom.
This study tests motion-sensor devices (small inertial measurement units) to detect moments when walking suddenly “freezes” in Parkinson’s disease. If you have freezing episodes, it may help researchers measure them more accurately and support better monitoring.
This study measures brain activity while you walk using a noninvasive light sensor setup. Researchers want to see how Parkinson’s medication and simple “walking cues” change balance and brain signals.
This study uses digital tools to assess and help people with Parkinson's and other conditions that affect walking. It aims to improve how gait problems like freezing or shuffling are measured and treated.
This trial tests a noninvasive ultrasound treatment targeting a brain area called the pedunculopontine nucleus to help reduce freezing of gait (a sudden inability to walk) in Parkinson's disease. If you have Parkinson's and experience freezing, you may be eligible to try this new approach.
