Cognitive-motor training for Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a type of training that combines thinking tasks with movement exercises to see if it can improve symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Diagnosed with Parkinson's disease
- On stable Parkinson's medication for at least 2 weeks
- Able to walk 10 meters (about 33 feet) without help
- Able to complete a simple thinking test (score of 24 or more)
- Good enough vision and hearing to participate (corrected vision/hearing is fine)
- At least a junior high school education
- No other health conditions that affect balance (like a recent stroke or severe arthritis)
- No history of brain surgery (like deep brain stimulation)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how brain activity relates to thinking and walking in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help understand the connections between these functions.
This study tests whether a remote therapy program that combines physical exercises with a thinking task can help people with Parkinson's walk better and think more clearly. It's done from home using a smartphone or computer.
This study tests whether a thinking-and-memory training program (cognitive stimulation) can help people with Parkinson's who have mild memory or thinking problems, but not dementia. You must not have had deep brain stimulation surgery.
This trial tests whether doing walking rehabilitation together with “motor imagery” (mentally practicing movements) can improve walking in people with Parkinson’s disease. It may help by training the brain and legs to coordinate movement more effectively.
This study tests a targeted motor training approach to improve walking (gait) in people with Parkinson’s disease. You may be considered if your walking is affected but you can already walk steadily for 10 minutes without help.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can improve memory and thinking in people with Parkinson's disease. You may be able to join if you are between 50 and 80, have mild to moderate Parkinson's, and can walk independently.
