Parkinson's Disease Remote Patient Monitoring During the COVID-19 Lockdown
A study conducted by Montfort Brain Monitor LTD has shown the feasibility of a smartphone-based remote patient monitoring (RPM) system for Parkinsons disease patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study found that around 30% of patients used the app at least twice per week for three weeks, and over half used the app at least once per week. The app was designed to monitor motor and cognitive performances of patients affected by neurological disorders. The study suggests that available technologies can be used for telemedicine, even in a population with limited skills and in a critical situation like a pandemic.
