Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety, tolerability, and the effect of vibration (delivered by an experimental device called PDVibe2) on freezing of gait (FOG) in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD). The PDVibe2 was developed by Resonate Forward, LLC (RF). This PDVibe2 was designed to administer vibration therapy to the wearer to improve gait and balance in persons with PD while wearing the device.

Primary Outcome

The Functional Ambulation Profile (FAP) score is the gold standard for spatiotemporal gait parameter analysis. For this study, it will be mean calculated by participants walking on the Zeno walkway, which will measure the patient's physical measurements, step length, step time and degree of symmetry., dynamic base of support and the use of ambulatory aids are factored into the score. The Zeno instrumented walkway (PKMAS) is a 20-foot computerized walkway containing sensor pads. A full FAP (Funct
