Kinesia is a novel device for objectively quantifying motor symptoms of movement disorders such as Parkinson´s disease and essential tremor. The compact device is worn on the finger and wrist of the patient and wirelessly transmits motion data to a nearby computer for display, analysis, report generation and storage. Kinesia can be used for patients with Parkinson´s disease to monitor the severity of motor symptoms such as tremor and bradykinesia and track the fluctuation patterns of these symptoms over time. The Kinesia system provides a standardized platform which clinicians and movement disorder specialists can use in conjunction with standard evaluations to improve overall patient care.

Kinesia can be used in any instance where monitoring upper extremity Parkinson´s disease and essential tremor motor symptoms is desired. Potential applications include monitoring kinematic motor symptom responses to medication dose and time, ambulatory tremor monitoring and tracking the kinematics of tremor on/off time, movement disorder motion analysis research and evaluating novel treatment interventions such as deep brain stimulation. The system can also be used in pharmaceutical trials in which new drugs are being evaluated to treat movement disorders. Kinesia provides a repeatable standardized platform in which the motor effects of drugs can be consistently and objectively quantified.
