Condition: Huntington's Disease (HD) · Exergame · Sponsor: University Hospital, Angers
Huntington's disease (HD) is a rare, hereditary neurodegenerative disorder. It generally manifests itself between the ages of 40 and 50, and results in motor impairment (choreic movements, balance disorders, gait disorders, etc.), cognitive impairment (executive functions, attention, etc.) and behavioral impairment (apathy, depression, irritability, etc.). To date, there is no curative treatment for HD, and drug therapies have little effect on symptomatology, particularly motor symptoms. Physical activity and cognitive stimulation appear to be promising tools in the fight against the progression of various symptoms in certain progressive neurological conditions, including HD. In addition, the use of exergame as an interface is becoming increasingly widespread and offers encouraging prospects in the management of certain neurodegenerative diseases (Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, spinocerebellar ataxia type 3). The aim of our project is to carry out a preliminary evaluation of the clinical benefit of a management program combining physical activity and cognitive stimulation, compared with a sequential management program.
