Parkinson's disease (PD) is an incurable, fatal neurodegenerative disease, and only available treatment is to minimize symptoms. Anecdotal evidence suggests whole body workout can help to reduce PD severity; however, it is challenging to quantify its effect on PD. The increased availability of fitness trackers can help in quantifying the effect of whole-body workout on PD. Before using any over the counter fitness tracker, we must study the ease of use of the fitness trackers in PD patients. We interviewed 32 PD patients with six over the counter fitness trackers and determined their perceptions and attitude towards the fitness trackers. Although none of the fitness trackers received perfect scores for ease of use or comfort due to the presence of tremors, two trackers performed significantly better than the others. Further study is warranted to understand the potential for fitness trackers to be used by PD patients.
帕金森病（PD）是一种无法治愈的致命神经退行性疾病，目前仅有的治疗方法是尽量减轻症状。有传闻证据表明，全身锻炼有助于减轻 PD 的严重程度；然而，量化其对 PD 的影响具有挑战性。健身追踪器的普及有助于量化全身锻炼对 PD 的影响。在使用任何非处方健身追踪器之前，我们必须研究 PD 患者使用健身追踪器的易用性。我们采访了 32 名 PD 患者，使用了 6 种非处方健身追踪器，并确定了他们对健身追踪器的看法和态度。尽管由于震颤的存在，没有一款健身追踪器在易用性或舒适度方面获得满分，但有两款追踪器的表现明显优于其他追踪器。需要进一步研究以了解 PD 患者使用健身追踪器的潜力。
