24-h Assessment of Tremor Activity and Posture in Parkinson's Disease by Multi-Channel Accelerometry

Abstract: This study describes a new method, based on accelerometry, which quantifies tremor activity and posture continuously. A total of 25 right-handed patients with Parkinson's disease were recorded in a rest condition and in a postural tremor test, and during 24-h ambulatory monitoring. The tremor parameters, such as amplitude, frequency, and occurrence (percent of time), were derived by joint amplitude-frequency analysis. The DC components of multi-channel accelerometry allowed the detection of posture. A repeated… Show more

“…Researchers have used gyroscopes and accelerometers to assess different movement disorders associated with PD including tremor [5], [6], bradykinesia [6], [7], gait [8], [9] and dyskinesia [10]. As a part of Timed Up and Go test, recent studies have also used inertial sensors to quantify turning [11], [12].…”
