Walking through the falls: understanding gait with wearable sensors in Parkinson's disease

Dr. Vrustangkumar Shah evaluated gait in Parkinson's disease patients in the lab and in real life using wearable sensors. Some measures can discriminate fallers from non-fallers in PD. The podcast discusses studying patients in different scenarios, the use of wearable sensors in PD, the results of a study on gait, and next steps for translating the research into clinical practice.
