Medical Xpress November 26, 2024
The use of PD Neurotechnology’s pioneering telemonitoring device to assess Parkinson’s Disease (PD) symptoms and inform medication adjustments led to the majority of patients exhibiting improved or stable symptom manifestation, according to a study published in Frontiers in Neurology.
The study investigated the progression of PD symptoms over two years for 17 patients who were previously evaluated using traditional methods. Physicians integrated PDMonitor, PD Neurotechnology’s continuous telemonitoring device, for each patient and used it to assess symptoms in their daily lives. These assessments informed decisions about their care.
The results of the study provide real-world evidence that remote continuous monitoring with PDMonitor had a positive impact on PD symptom control:
- The time patients in the study spent in the...
