Evaluate-PD

PI: Dr. Jeffrey Kaye

IRB #23247

Have you been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in the last three years?

You may be eligible to participate in a research study.

EVALUATE-PD (IRB #23247) is investigating changes in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) using a home monitoring system. Your participation in the study will consist of an initial screening assessment and a 2-hour baseline visit, followed by an installation of study equipment in your home, and requires both a participant with PD and a study partner to participate. For one year, you will be asked to use the system in a number of ways, such as wearing a watch-like device, using an electronic pillbox, and completing weekly online questionnaires. At the end of the study, there will be a final 2-hour study visit.

You may be eligible if you:

  • Have received a diagnosis of PD within the past 3 years
  • Have a study partner (someone that lives inside the home or spends 3+ hours per week with the participant) available
  • Are comfortable using a home computer and have internet access
