Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is the development and early-stage validation of a wearable sensor for dysphagia in patients with PD.
Detailed Description:
The project goal is the development and early stage validation of a wearable sensor for dysphagia in patients with PD. The first phase of the program involves engineering goals relating to increasing the battery life of this sensor to 48 hours between charges and reducing the overall form factor size. The second phase of the program is to conduct focus groups with PD patients to assess sensor usability, set up burden, and design feedback. The third phase of the study will assess the feasibility of the sensor to detect and cue swallowing in a small cohort of PD patients.
