Abstract: 【Objective】 To explore the characteristics of plantar pressure distribution in Parkinson Disease (PD) patients and potential effect of visual and auditory cues on static and dynamic plantar pressure. 【Methods】 Gaitview was used to collect the static and dynamic plantar pressure of 25 PD patients(Hoehn and Yahr:1.5-3):15 males and 10 females with average age of 62 ± 11

before

at 1-week and 3-month follow-up of the rehabilitation program based on visual and auditory cues. The characteristics of the pressure distribution and the changes at different time points were investigated and analyzed. 【Results】 For bilateral static assessment before the training

the plantar pressure ranked as Zone 8>Zone 7>Zone 4>Zone 5>Zone 3>Zone 6>Zone 1>Zone 2. However

a significant declines of hallux and the fifth metatarsal bone pressure of the severe side

together with the dynamic range of the severe side were found at 1-week and 3-month follow-up as Zone 8>Zone 3>Zone 4>Zone 5>Zone 6>Zone 3>Zone 1>Zone 2(P < 0.05). For dynamic assessment

there was also a significant increase in posterior distribution and the percent of heel-strike phrase of affected limb increased to 2.2% and 5.8% at 1-week and 3-month compared with 0.3% before the training(P < 0.05). 【Conclusion】 The parkinson disease leads to forward shift of center of gravity

increased drift area and loss of foot strike phrase. The visual and auditory cues provide significant improvements in static and dynamic pressure distribution

drift of center of gravity and foot strike phrase of walking.
