Safety and Feasibility of Peripheral Sensory Stimulation of the Hand in the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
This is a prospective, homebased, interventional clinical study in which 8 subjects will be enrolled. Eight (8) subjects who suffer from Parkinson's disease will receive treatment using the NeuroGlove.
Up to 8 subjects enrolled and complete study procedures. There will be a single cohort in the study consisting of the subjects with PD who will receive treatment with NeuroGlove.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| single arm | Experimental | Subjects in the study will use NeuroGlove 60 minutes twice per day, 30 minutes to each hand. Subjects will be instructed on coordinating their breathing with device on/off periods to maximize relaxation. Subjects who complete less than 45 minutes of treatment per day will be considered noncompliant and may be replaced. |

| NeuroGlove | Device | The NeuroGlove is a plastic chamber with multiple apertures along its length to allow for puffs of air to be directed to the volar surface of the distal forearm, the palm, and the fingers. The NeuroGlove is intended to provide peripheral sensory stimulation to the hand through pneumatic puffs of air to encourage collateral blood supply and sensorimotor development. A pneumatic pump delivers intermittent puffs of air cycling between one second on and two seconds off. The hand with the palm facing up is placed within the device chamber on a gel pad to provide a comfortable resting surface for the duration of the treatment, which lasts approximately thirty minutes. The device facilitates the rehabilitation, improvement, or restoration of motion in patients with neurological disorders. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Use the UPDRS to Evaluate safety and feasibility of device | Evaluate safety and feasibility of device use on subjects with active symptoms, monitoring motor symptoms and subjects' sense of well-being. The UPDRS - United Parkinson's Disease Rating scale - developed for research and clinical evaluation will be used. The form has a severity scale with ratings from 0-4 with 0 meaning no severity and 4 meaning extreem severity | 4 weeks |
| Use Custom Satisfaction Scale to Rate and severity of adverse events related to the use of the NeuroGlove. | The Satisfaction scale will assess ease of use, satisfaction, feelings of symptom reduction among other questions with a 5 point scale: Strongly Agree, Agree, Neutral, Disagree, and Strongly Disagree | 4 weeks |
