Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that predominantly alter patients' motor performance and compromises the speed, the automaticity and fluidity of natural movements. The patients fluctuate between periods in which they can move almost normally for some hours (ON state) and periods with motor disorders (OFF state). Gait propert...

... applying the movement signals, to estimate the step length, they are filtered with zero-lag fourth order low pass Butterworth filter with a cut-off frequency of 30Hz to reduce the noise for all the methods accept method 4. Table 1 compares the anticipated distance estimated against the real distance during test case, i.e. the second part of the walk, and, additionally, both values for the total walk. Table 2 and 3 show a comparison between real and anticipated average step length and average gait speed, respectively, measured by means of the estimators during the test phase. Standard error of each method were also calculated using Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Standard Deviation (SD), which are showed together as RMSE(SD) in the tables. ...

Auditory stimulation via rhythmic cues can be used successfully in the rehabilitation of motor function in patients with motor disorders. A prototypical example is provided by dysfunctional gait in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). Coupling steps to external rhythmic cues (the beat of music or the sounds of a metronome) leads to lo...
