Introducing Kinesia motor assessment systems

The Kinesia motor assessment system line of products was developed to aid researchers, clinicians, and clinical trials in gathering clear, reliable data related to the patient’s motor symptoms. It has been used to provide outcome measures in all phases of clinical trials around the world for Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, and other movement disorders.

The intelligent remote sensing technology improves efficiency with web applications, expands accessibility, and has been shown to increase the sensitivity and reliability of outcome measures.

Kinesia systems also enable clinicians to use remote patient monitoring to optimise and personalise therapy regimens. This enables personalised, efficient therapy titration and reduces office visits for therapy adjustment.

Kinesia ONE™ motor assessment system

The Kinesia ONE™ motor assessment system provides highly sensitive motor symptom assessment by having the patient perform brief pre-defined tasks based on common rating scales (e.g., UPDRS, TETRAS). A mobile application guides patients through donning the motion sensor on their finger or heel and provides intuitive instructions for completing the assessment tasks.

Data from the motion sensor is uploaded to the Kinesia Web Portal in real-time and algorithms are used to calculate severity scores on a 0-4 rating scale shown to be highly correlated with clinician ratings.

Kinesia 360

The Kinesia 360™ motor assessment system provides a low-burden method for remote, continuous measurement of patient symptoms. Sensors worn on the wrist and ankle, combined with a mobile application, continuously record data for assessment of tremor, slowness, dyskinesia, and mobility. Data from the motion sensors is uploaded to the Kinesia Web Portal and algorithms are used to detect symptoms and calculate severity scores every two minutes on a scale shown to be highly correlated with clinician ratings.

KinesiaU

The KinesiaU™ motor assessment system is a validated, low-cost medical app for individuals to measure their Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor symptoms using an iPhone or Android smartphone and smartwatch. The system tracks tremors, slowness, and dyskinesia as well as therapies and activities in user-friendly reports. These can help patients and clinicians make better care decisions and identify therapies and activities to improve their symptoms.
