Care and Use Instructions
When transporting Kinesia HomeView, ensure all components are secured in the travel case to
prevent damage.
It is not recommended to store Kinesia HomeView in very hot or cold temperatures. If the system
has been stored in an environment lower than 50°F or higher than 90°F, wait at least two hours for
the system to return to room temperature before it is turned on.
Do not expose the system to liquid or excessive moisture to prevent mechanical or electrical
damage.
Note: to prevent the possibility of cross contamination and to maintain hygienic safety, a
throughout cleaning/disinfecting of the Finger Sensor, Tablet PC and Charging Pad is
required after each patient use.
Use only the following products to safely clean and disinfect the Finger Sensor, Tablet PC and
Charging Pad:
•Dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride 0.3 % maximum concentration (i.e. germicidal
disposable wipes)
•Alcohol-free glass cleaning fluids
•Water with mild (neutral pH) soap solutions (do not submerge any equipment, wipe down
with damp cloth)
•Dry microfiber cleaning cloth or chamois cloth without oil)
•Static-free cloth wipes
Avoid strong solvents such as alcohol wipes, acetone, ammonium chloride, methylene chloride
and hydrocarbons which can permanently damage the surface of the Finger Sensor, Tablet PC
and Charging Pad.
Avoid fibrous material such as paper towels which can scratch the Tablet’s touch screen.
Refer to the HP Tablet User’s Guide, available at
http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/supportmanual/c03112061/c03112061.pdf, for
further cleaning and disinfecting instructions.

Chapter 1: About Kinesia HomeView
General Device Description
Kinesia HomeView is a medical device capable of recording, analyzing, and displaying kinematic
and diary data from movement disorder patients. Using data storage and miniaturization
technologies, Kinesia HomeView provides kinematic data acquisition that is untethered, thus
allowing patients to move freely while performing instructed motor tasks. The purpose of this
system is to provide clinicians with a detailed report of motor symptom fluctuations, videos, and
patient diary information throughout the day.
Kinesia HomeView consists of three hardware components: A) a Tablet PC, B) a Charging Pad,
and C) a Finger Sensor (Figure 1). The Tablet PC is used to initiate a patient study and store
patient data (motor tests, diary, and medication information) from a completed study. The Charging
Pad charges the Finger Sensor. The Finger Sensor collects the motion data while the patient
performs the instructed motor tasks and transfers the data to the Tablet PC.
The two software components are the patient application and the web application. The pre-
installed patient application software on the Tablet PC allows patients to enter diary information
and perform video-guided motor tasks. The web application is used by the clinician to create study
definitions, upload patient data, and view patient reports.

Sensor. The patient slides the tip of
their index finger into the sleeve with
the sensor box oriented up.
Tablet PC
The touch screen Tablet PC is the central component of the Kinesia HomeView system. A color-
coded system (Table 1) highlights where the AC power cable should be connected to the Tablet
PC, as well as the location of the power button and camera. Patient data is stored on the Tablet
PC while a study is in progress when mobile broadband is not available, or transferred to the web
application in real time when mobile broadband is available. The power cord must remain
connected to the Tablet PC at all times to ensure the system operates properly.

Charging Pad
The Charging Pad allows easy removal and return of the Finger Sensor during motor symptom
assessments. It also serves as the charging platform for the Finger Sensor when motor tests are
not being performed.
Finger Sensor
The Finger Sensor (Figure 2) is worn on the patient’s index finger while performing video-guided
motor tasks. During assessments, the patient should wear the Finger Sensor on the index finger
with the blue box facing up. The sensor measures three-dimensional motion using accelerometers
and gyroscopes. Accelerometers measure linear acceleration while gyroscopes measure angular
velocity. Motion sensor data are sampled at 64 Hz.

Figure 3. The Kinesia HomeView patient software interface consists of a
symptom and medication diary and the time of the next motor test session as
instructed by the clinician.
Patient Application
The patient application is the primary interface that patients interact with while using Kinesia
HomeView (Figure 3). This application has three main features:
1. ‘my Symptoms’ allows the patient to choose from two options: various symptoms (i.e.
tremor, rigidity, and slowed movements) as well as various activities (i.e. getting dressed,
sleeping, and walking) can be subjectively rated by the patient; OR the patient can choose
to capture a 30-second video of themselves.
•Symptom ratings appear to the patient as color-coded smiley faces that have values
of 1/green (corresponds to no symptoms) to 5/red (corresponds to severe
symptoms).
2. ‘my Meds’ contains a list of the patient medications the clinician is interested in evaluating.
Patients can select medication type and time of use.
3. ‘my Tests’ allows patients to perform a motor test session at any time.
