Abstract
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms that worsen over time. Today, traditional clinical assessment methods are used to monitor disease progression and evaluate treatment responses. However, these methods are subjective and may fail to measure specific conditions. In recent years, thanks to advances in wearable technologies, smart sensors, and data analysis, technology-based approaches to the assessment of patients with Parkinson's disease have gained more attention. With these technologies, objective data can be obtained by monitoring patients' daily activities, motor functions, and symptoms. Motor symptoms such as tremor severity, rigidity, bradykinesia, postural instabilities, freezing phenomenon, and motor parameters of speech impairment can be objectively measured through these technologies. Furthermore, the ability to remotely transmit these data allows patients to be assessed in their own homes and provides continuous feedback to healthcare professionals. This review highlights the importance and potential of technology-based assessment methods in Parkinson's patients and aims to guide future research.
