Brief Summary

Physical activity has demonstrated its beneficial effect on functional capabilities and quality of life in patients with PD. However, the daily physical activity remains limited in these patients. Rhythmic auditory cueing improves spatio-temporal gait parameters in patients with PD. The first results of BeatHealth studies have allowed us to identify the best musical stimulation to improve these parameters and the motivation of the patients. The originality of this study is to propose a gait auto-rehabilitation program using BeatHealth device with optimal auditory cueing during four weeks in ecological conditions in PD. Observance (utilization's time), safety (falls, pain, fatigability) and efficacy (gait parameters, balance, quality of life) will be evaluated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of time of use of the BeatHealth device compared to the prescribed schedule

    measured automatically by Beathealth device

    4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Auto-evalation of the number of falls reported by the patient on a daily agenda

    4 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Patients with parkinson's disease

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with parkinson's disease

Behavioral: Auto rehabilitation program of gait with Beat Health device.

Interventions

The auto-rehabilitation program will consist in an outside walk, during 5 sessions of 30 minutes per week during 4 weeks with the beatHealth device, delivering the optimal rythmic auditory cueing. The device will associate an Android smartphone, hold at the belt, connected by bluetooth to a headphone and to two sensors strapped to the ankles. The patient will transfer the data collected by BeatHealth to a secured website and will complete the agenda

Patients with parkinson's disease

Eligibility Criteria
