Cueing training in the home improves gait-related mobility in Parkinson’s disease: the RESCUE trial
Alice Nieuwboer,Gert Kwakkel,Lynn Rochester,Derek K. Jones,E.E.H. van Wegen,A M Willems,F Chavret,V. Hetherington,Katherine Baker,I. Lim +9 more
TL;DR: Cueing training in the home has specific effects on gait, freezing and balance and may be a useful therapeutic adjunct to the overall management of gait disturbance in Parkinson’s disease.
Journal Article
Cueing training in the home improves gait-related mobility in Parkinson's disease : the RESCUE trial. Commentary
Mark A. Hirsch,F. M. Hommond,Alice Nieuwboer,G. Kwakkel,Lynn Rochester,Derek K. Jones,E.E.H. van Wegen,A M Willems,F Chavret,V. Hetherington,Katherine Baker,I. Lim +11 more
TL;DR: The Rehabilitation in Parkinson's Disease: Strategies for Cueing (RESCUE) trial investigated the effects of a home physiotherapy program based on rhythmical cueing on gait and gaitrelated activity as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for motor learning in Parkinson's disease: Acquisition, automaticity and retention of cued gait performance after training with external rhythmical cues
Lynn Rochester,Katherine Baker,V. Hetherington,Diana Jones,A M Willems,Gert Kwakkel,Erwin E. H. van Wegen,I. Lim,Alice Nieuwboer +8 more
TL;DR: The results support the use of ERC to enhance motor learning in PD as defined by increased acquisition, automaticity and retention and highlight the potential for sustained improvement in walking and complex task performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Immediate Effect of Attentional, Auditory, and a Combined Cue Strategy on Gait During Single and Dual Tasks in Parkinson’s Disease
TL;DR: The attentional strategy and the combination of a rhythmic auditory cue with an Attentional strategy were equally effective, and improved walking speed and step amplitude significantly during both single and dual tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
The attentional cost of external rhythmical cues and their impact on gait in Parkinson's disease: effect of cue modality and task complexity
Lynn Rochester,Alice Nieuwboer,Katherine Baker,V. Hetherington,A M Willems,F Chavret,Gert Kwakkel,E.E.H. van Wegen,I. Lim,Derek K. Jones +9 more
TL;DR: Gait performance during a single task reduced with cues in contrast to a dual task where PD subjects appeared to benefit from rhythmical cues (increased speed and step length).
