Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to evaluate a novel robotic system designed for motor-cognitive rehabilitation in individuals with Parkinson's disease. Participants will engage in a series of sessions using the robotic platform, which incorporates music and gamification to enhance the rehabilitation experience. The study will assess both subjective user experiences and objective measures of motor and cognitive function before and after the intervention. A total of 15 patients aged 50-75 will participate, with assessments conducted by trained therapists to ensure accurate data collection.
