Cognitive Cueing and Video Intervention for Gait in Parkinson's Disease

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if cognitive cueing (eg., prompting individuals to think about taking big-long steps while walking), either as a stand- alone intervention or combined with a personalized gait training video, can improve gait (walking), mobility, and balance confidence for individuals with Parkinson's Disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does focusing on cognitive cues while walking improve gait, mobility, and balance confidence for individuals with Parkinson's Disease? 2. Does incorporating a personalized gait training video alongside cognitive cueing lead to amplified improvements in gait, mobility, and balance confidence for individuals with Parkinson's Disease? Researchers will compare how gait, mobility, balance confidence and quality of life change over time for participants when they practice walking with and without a cognitive cue alone, and when they practice with using a personalized gait training video. The researchers are also interested in how participation in this trial will affect quality of life and conscious attention to gait. Participants will * Complete walking trials on an instrumented mat that records data on their walking ability. These trials will be undertaken without a cognitive cue and while participants mentally rehearse a series of 3 cognitive cues (Take big long steps; Walk heel-toe; Stand up straight). * Be informed about which of the 3 cues best improved their walking and will receive a personalized gait training video for at home practice. * Complete online surveys that ask questions about their Parkinson's Disease, mobility, balance confidence quality of life and conscious attention to gait. * Visit the research facility 3 to 4 times during the study to have their gait (walking), mobility, balance confidence, quality of life and conscious attention to gait assessed and reassessed. * Practice both with and without their personalized video at home and keep a diary to record their practice sessions * Participate in a brief interview to discuss their experiences with the training and their perceptions of the effectiveness of cognitive cues and video-recorded feedback
