Parkinsonranneke

Parkinsonranneke provides a remote service for measuring and assessing Parkinson’s symptoms in Finland, helping patients and their doctors gain a clearer picture of symptoms during everyday life. The service uses the Parkinson’s Kinetigraph, a device described on the website as being used internationally to assess Parkinson’s symptoms. Patients wear the device for seven days, after which the results provide measured information and a comprehensive analysis to support discussions about care and treatment.

Patients can order the assessment themselves, and a doctor’s referral may make the service eligible for reimbursement from Kela, Finland’s social insurance institution. Parkinsonranneke also serves healthcare professionals, offering information and analysis that can complement the brief view of a patient’s condition available during a clinic appointment. The site provides separate information and registration options for patients and doctors, as well as pricing, expert listings, user instructions in Finnish or Swedish, and contact support. Parkinsonranneke reports that more than 85 percent of users recommend it to other people with Parkinson’s disease.
