Summary

This study is testing whether a wearable pendant sensor can reliably track movement symptoms in 60 people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and related disorders over 12 months. Participants wear the sensor at home for 7 days each month and also have in-person checkups every 3 months. The goal is to develop a remote monitoring tool that could be used for other frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) syndromes.
