A shoe device to measure walking in Parkinson's patients
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial is testing a special shoe device called NUSHU that tracks how you walk. It aims to help doctors better understand movement problems in Parkinson's disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease
- You can understand English and follow study instructions
- You are able to walk on your own or with a walking aid (like a cane or walker) but not help from another person
- You do not have other serious brain conditions like a stroke or epilepsy

This study tests a wearable system (DANU Sports) that measures how you walk and keep your balance. It aims to see if the system can help people with Parkinson's disease track their movement problems.
This study tests a pair of 'smart shoes' that give gentle vibrations to help people with Parkinson's disease who have freezing of gait (feeling stuck to the ground). The shoes aim to improve walking and reduce freezing episodes.
This trial tests if a special shoe insert combined with balance exercises can improve balance in people with Parkinson's disease. You will be asked to stand, walk, and do simple exercises, and your progress will be measured with tests like motion analysis and muscle activity recordings.
This study uses small wearable sensors to measure how you walk and move. The goal is to better track Parkinson's symptoms and predict falls, so your care can be more personalized.
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 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.
