Metronome and stooped posture guard for Parkinson patients
The Perfect Posture is a combination of a physical activity monitor, metronome and stooped posture guard that enables and assists Parkinson patients in improving their daily mobility. It is a small lightweight device which can be worn underneath the clothes and is powered by rechargeable batteries.
Improves walk related mobility using auditive or tactile cueing signal
The Perfect Posture also improves mobility and reduces freezes using cueing signals (metronome or rhythmic vibration). The benefit of such cueing signals has been medically validated by the VU University Medical Center in Amsterdam.
Stooped posture guard
The Perfect Posture corrects posture by alerting Parkinson patients when their posture deviates excessively from an upright position. Different warning angles can be set by care givers for forwards and sideways posture.
Software
The Perfect Posture is delivered with a PC application which allows the physiotherapist to set cueing frequencies (in beats per minute) and boundary levels for the chest angles to the need of the individual patient.
