About this trial

The present study aims to use the SensMode System - a system composed of wearable devices for upper and lower limb movement analysis and electronic device for data acquisition and processing - on healthy subjects, subjects with idiopathic hyposmia, patients with Parkinson's disease, and subjects with de-novo drug-naïve extrapyramidal syndrome. The purpose is to identify normative data of objective motor measures obtained with such a system, as well as to increase knowledge about the potential contribution such a solution can make to the preclinical diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and the management of patients with this disease.
