Could remote hand exercises ease Parkinson's symptoms?
NCT ID NCT07641556
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study investigates whether upper extremity exercise training delivered via tele-rehabilitation (synchronous or asynchronous) can improve motor symptoms, hand dexterity, and daily living activities in people with Parkinson's disease. Participants will receive either remote or in-clinic training twice a week for six weeks. The trial compares these approaches to conventional single-task training to see which is most effective.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
tele-rehabilitation-based dual-task upper extremity training
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a convenient, home-based therapy to improve hand function and daily activities for people with Parkinson's.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with 40 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The training requires a caregiver and internet access, which may limit participation.
