Classification of Movement

  • Parkinson’s disease is rapidly increasing worldwide and causes complex, fluctuating motor symptoms that severely impact daily life. As the disease progresses, patients shift unpredictably between ON and OFF states and may develop involuntary movements, making their condition difficult to manage and understand. Today, these fluctuations are measured through patient reported motor diaries, which are burdensome, subjective, and unable to capture the true variability and severity of symptoms. This lack of accurate measurement makes it harder to evaluate new treatments and slows progress for people living with advanced Parkinson’s disease.
