Facilitating Motor Skill Learning in Parkinson's Disease III

Facilitating Motor Skill Learning by Aerobic Training in Parkinson's Disease III

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 10 Dec 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The study is designed to assess the effects of cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise on motor skill learning in Parkinson patients. Specifically, the investigators examine whether moderate-intense aerobic exercise, performed immediately following motor skill practice over the course of a six week intervention period, facilitates motor memory consolidation. In this experimental trial, participants will be randomly allocated to either an intervention group (motor skill practice + aerobic exercise) or control group (motor skill practice + seated rest).
