description Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurologic disease that has a great impact on the patient’s quality of life. The natural course of the disease is characterized by an insidious onset of symptoms, such as rest tremor, shuffling gait, bradykinesia, followed by improvement with the initiation of dopaminergic therapy. However, this “honeymoon period” gradually comes to an end with the emergence of motor fluctuations and dyskinesia. PD patients need long-term treatments and monitoring throughout the day; however, clinical examinations in hospitals are often not sufficient for optimal management of the disease. Technology-based devices are a new comprehensive assessment method of PD patient’s symptoms that are easy to use and give unbiased measurements. This review article provides an exhaustive overview of motor complications of advanced PD and new approaches to the management of the disease using sensors.
