ASSESSING PROGRESSION OF HUNTINGTON'S DISEASE

Currently, assessing the severity and progression of symptoms in a patient diagnosed with Huntington's disease involves in-clinic monitoring and testing of the patient every 6 to 12 months. However, monitoring and testing a patient more frequently is preferred, but increasing the frequency of in-clinic monitoring and testing can be costly and inconvenient to the patient. Thus, assessing the severity and progression of symptoms via remote monitoring and testing of the patient outside of a clinic environment as described herein provides advantages in cost, ease of monitoring and convenience to the patient. Systems, methods and devices according to the present disclosure provide a diagnostic for assessing one or more symptoms of Huntington's disease in a patient by passive monitoring of the patient and/or active testing of the patient.
