Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this research study is to design, implement, and clinically assess a portable, user worn system for monitoring Parkinson's disease (PD) motor symptoms. The current standard in evaluating symptoms is the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), a subjective, qualitative ranking system. The main goal of this research is to develop a quantitative system, Kinesia HomeView, to assess tremor as well as different features of bradykinesia in a home based system which can capture those symptom changes over the course of a day and aid in evaluating treatment protocol efficacy.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Clinical diagnosis of Parkinson's disease

Exclusion Criteria

* Inability to follow the required clinical instruction
* Subjects with cognitive impairments that would prohibit them from properly using the Kinesia HomeView system
* Subjects without the cognitive ability to respond to researchers and let them know when any parameters of the study may become uncomfortable
* Subjects found on examination by our clinicians to have any physical limitations which would be counter productive to participation in this study.
