Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of using of a portable exoskeleton for walking training in persons with Parkinson's disease that have gait mobility problems and/or postural instability.
Detailed Description:
This is a feasibility study to examine a novel application of state-of-the-art robotic-assist gait training to improve mobility in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). The study will investigate the utility of the Keeogo® exoskeleton (a robotic-assist gait training device) for people with PD. The Keeogo® offers advantages of being lightweight and portable (for eventual home use) and is relatively quick to attach and remove. The aims here are to establish the safety of the Keeogo® for gait training in persons with PD and to preliminarily assess the potential efficacy of the Keeogo® for better balance control, gait mobility and fall reduction in persons with PD.
