Zusammenfassung

Introduction: Fatigue is a frequent symptom in patients with Parkinson's disease. Very often it has a negative impact on the quality of life. The aim of our study was to explore whether fatigue occurs during walking on a treadmill and which parameters can be used for characterisation. Material and Methods: We examined 9 patients with Parkinson's disease (age 53–70 years, Hoehn & Yahr 1–2,5) and 11 healthy subjects (age 56–68 years). Gait analysis was performed on a treadmill at individually slow, normal and highest possible velocity. For analysis, a system based on ultrasound by Zebris Medical GmbH was used. Amp…
