NUSHU Shoe for Gait Analysis in Parkinson's Disease
This study is testing a new shoe device called NUSHU, made by Magnes AG, for people with Parkinson's disease. The NUSHU shoe has sensors that measure how you walk (gait analysis) in real-time. It also provides gentle vibrations (vibrotactile stimulus) that might help with walking difficulties. Researchers want to see how comfortable and easy to use the NUSHU shoe is, and how many people complete the study. You may be able to join if you are at least 18 years old, have Parkinson's disease, can speak English, and are willing to follow study instructions. This study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and aims to enroll 40 participants.

What this trial measures
- Mean Score of Comfort Level of Device in Satisfaction SurveyAt Safety Follow Up (Week 18)
The satisfaction survey contains 2 demographic questions and 5 questions about participant satisfaction completed at end of study participation. The comfort level of the device question is the following: How would you rate the comfort level of the device? The scale is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, with 0 meaning most uncomfortable and 5 meaning most comfortable. Mean score for each individual question will be provided.
- Mean Score of Ease of Using Device in Satisfaction SurveyAt Safety Follow Up (Week 18)
The satisfaction survey contains 2 demographic questions and 5 questions about participant satisfaction completed at end of study participation. The comfort level of the device question is the following: How easy was it to use the device? The scale is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, with 0 meaning very easy and 5 meaning very difficult. Mean score for each individual question will be provided.
- Ratio of Participants Who Completed Study to Total Number of Participants EnrolledThrough study completion, 18 weeks
We would like to measure the retention rate to assess feasibility. The lowest ratio would be 0, and the highest ratio would be 1.
