Using range of motion to examine the effects of deep brain stimulation on gait function of Parkinson’s disease patients with freezing of gait: a proof-of-concept study

The purpose of this study was to develop quantitative parameters using range of motion (ROM) of shanks, thighs and knees to evaluate the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) on gait performance and freezing of gait (FOG) of patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease (PD). Three patients with FOG d...
