The effect of multidisciplinary therapy on dual task performance in preclinical Huntington's disease: An exploratory study

Abstract

Dear Editor, Impairments in dual tasking are an early feature of Huntington's disease (HD) that severely affect activities of daily living. Studies have documented impairments in walking during talking tasks (motor-cognitive), bimanual tapping tasks (motor-motor) and paired choice reaction and digit backward dual tasks (cognitive-cognitive) [1], [2], [3], [4], [5].
