Studies of accelerometry, electromyography, activity monitoring, gyroscopy, digitizing tablet‐based measures, vocal acoustic analysis, and several other transducer‐based methods were identified by searching PubMed.gov. The availability, use, acceptability, reliability, validity, and responsiveness were reviewed for each measure using the following criteria: (1) used in the assessment of tremor; (2) used in published studies by people other than the developers; and (3) adequate clinimetric testing. Accelerometry, gyroscopy, electromyography, and digitizing tablet‐based measures fulfilled all three criteria. Compared to rating scales, transducers are far more sensitive to changes in tremor amplitude and frequency, but they do not appear to be more capable of detecting a change that exceeds random variability in tremor amplitude (minimum detectable change). The use of transducer‐based measures requires careful attention to their limitations and validity in a particular clinical or research setting. date: 2016-09 date_type: published publisher: WILEY official_url: https://doi.org/10.1002/mds.26671 full_text_type: other language: eng verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1137589 doi: 10.1002/mds.26671 lyricists_name: Bhatia, Kailash lyricists_name: Stamelou, Maria lyricists_id: KPBHA96 lyricists_id: MSTAM90 actors_name: Wood, Nicholas actors_name: Allington-Smith, Dominic actors_id: NWWOO43 actors_id: DAALL44 actors_role: owner actors_role: impersonator full_text_status: restricted publication: Movement Disorders volume: 31 number: 9 pagerange: 1327-1336 pages: 10 issn: 1531-8257 citation: Haubenberger, D; Abbruzzese, G; Bain, PG; Bajaj, N; Benito-León, J; Bhatia, KP; Deuschl, G; ...
