An evaluation of self-administration of auditory cueing to improve gait in people with Parkinson’s disease

Abstract: Objective To evaluate a self-administration of auditory cueing on gait difficulties in persons with Parkinson’s disease (PD) over a one week period. Design Single group pre- and post-test Setting Research lab, Community. Participants Twenty-one individuals with PD. Interventions Self-application of an auditory pacer set at a rate 25% faster than preferred cadence. Main outcome measures Self-selected gait speed, cadence, stride length, and double support time with and without the pacer at the initial … Show more

“…Similar findings have been reported in both the speech and limb motor control literature (Bryant, Rintala, Lai, & Protas, 2009;Darling & Huber, 2011;Sadagopan & Huber, 2007;Ringenbach, Van Gemmert, Shill, & Stelmach, 2011). Accordingly, cue-based interventions have been shown to be quite effective in the rehabilitation of gait (e.g., Bryant et al, 2009), manual motor (e.g., Ringenbach et al, 2011), and speech motor impairments (e.g., Fox, Ebersbach, Ramig, & Sapir, 2012) in individuals with PD. Neurological data suggest associative and limbic regions of the basal ganglia are less affected in individuals with PD than the sensorimotor regions, providing a possible neurological explanation for behavioral improvements observed when individuals with PD operate under volitional or cued rather than an habitual mode of control (Redgrave et al, 2010).…”

“…This retained ability to adjust walking patterns as instructed is in keeping with prior work showing that people with PD have the ability to control stepping rate(2) and provision of auditory cues, such as a metronome, can enhance gait performance. (1921) Though the metronome for this study was turned off during recorded trials, all participants were allowed to practice with it on.…”

“…Auditory cues are known to enhance performance in people with PD and the purpose of this study was to observe the effects of cadence and step length manipulation during a natural, uncued state. (1921)…”

“…Participants were recruited from the Movement Disorders Center database at Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine (WUSM). All participants with PD had a diagnosis of idiopathic PD according to established criteria [13, 14]. Inclusion criteria included the ability to independently ambulate a minimum of twenty feet and normal or corrected to normal vision.…”

“…This allowed for observation of the participant's internally generated movement state during each condition. Further, auditory and visual cues were removed as these cues are known to enhance performance in individuals with PD [14, 17, 18], and the purpose of this study was to observe each participant's internally generated movement without external cues. …”
