About this study

To quantitative measurement of nocturnal hypokinesia of Parkinson's disease patients compares with their spouses by using multisite accelerometers for 1 night at their home. To determine whether the nocturnal movement of Parkinson's disease patients less than normal elderly people or not.

Read the detailed description

To quantify the severity of nocturnal akinesia, the nocturnal akinesia dystonia and cramp score (NADCS) and Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) were recorded in the patient group and also details of demographic data, history and physical examinations were included. The patients and spouses wore the 3-axis (x,y,z) accelerometers at bilateral wrists, bilateral ankles, and trunk for 1 night at their home. The 5-minute periods after going to bed and before waking up in the morning were excluded from the analysis. The definition of movement of the trunk is a change of 15 degrees from the previous position and sustained for 5 minutes in any axis. The movement of limbs is defined as a change of 15 degrees from the previous position and sustained for 2 minutes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the number of axial movement of Parkinson's disease patients compare to their spouses defined by accelerometer

    Measured: one year

  2. the velocity of axial movement of Parkinson's disease patients compare to their spouses defined by accelerometer

    Measured: one year

  3. the acceleration of axial movement of Parkinson's disease patients compare to their spouses by accelerometer

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The correlations between nocturnal hypokinesia parameter (number of axial movement) and severity of Parkinson's disease.

    The correlation between number of axial movement and UPDRS.

    Measured: one year

  2. The correlations between nocturnal hypokinesia parameter (velocity of axial movement) and severity of Parkinson's disease.

    The correlation between velocity of axial movement and UPDRS.

    Measured: one year

  3. The correlations between nocturnal hypokinesia parameter (degree of axial movement) and severity of Parkinson's disease.

    The correlation between degree of axial movement and UPDRS.

    Measured: one year

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Thailand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the number of axial movement of Parkinson's disease patients compare to their spouses defined by accelerometer (time frame: one year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02352727, which also lists 11 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Feb 2015.
