Optimizing Vibrational Therapy to Improve Gait and Balance in Parkinson's Disease

Virginia Commonwealth University·interventional·Posted Mar 20, 2019·Updated Mar 16, 2026

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Vibration Session and No vibration session for Parkinson Disease. Completed, enrolled 12 participants across 1 site.

Detailed 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.

Interventions

Vibration Sessiondevice

The PDVibe2 is owned by Resonate Forward, LLC and will be loaned to Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) for this project. The device is non-invasive, lightweight, untethered, contains a rechargeable battery, and is worn on both feet and ankles. PDVibe2 delivers vibration when activated by an easy to access switch on the device or by remote. The internal circuitry has been miniaturized, is encased in a small box, and is attached to the ankle using a soft flexible band.

The PDVibe2 is owned by Resonate Forward, LLC and will be loaned to Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) for this project. The device is non-invasive, lightweight, untethered, contains a rechargeable battery, and is worn on both feet and ankles. During this session, PDVibe2 delivers no vibration but is still worn. The internal circuitry has been miniaturized, is encased in a small box, and is attached to the ankle using a soft flexible band.
