Exercise Management in Parkinson's Disease

The Effects of Exercise Management in Parkinson's Disease

Обзор

The aim of this study is to examine the benefits that individuals with Parkinson's disease will gain from the rehabilitation program by enabling them to manage their exercise times independently using telerehabilitation method. The main research questions examined in this study are as follows: * Are the improvements in quality of life, walking speed and changes in functionality parameters achieved by individuals with Parkinson's disease through managing their own exercise plans as effective as those achieved through a supervised exercise programme? * Is it effective for Parkinson's patients to manage their own exercise plans in improving their adherence to exercise?

Подробное описание

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a movement disorder characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms, changes in the patient's balance and gait patterns, and a significant impact on daily living activities. Physical therapy and rehabilitation play a crucial role in managing the symptoms resulting from PD. It is known that early participation in a rehabilitation program significantly improves patients' quality of life.

Patients need to incorporate exercise prescriptions designed specifically for them into their lives and participate in a lifelong exercise program. While integrating these exercises into their lives, patients encounter certain barriers and lose their motivation to exercise. These barriers can include transportation, economic problems, time management, and motor and non-motor symptoms.

Home-based exercises and telerehabilitation methods emerge as solutions for dealing with transportation, economic problems, and time management. These methods can be seen as important aids in helping patients develop the habit of exercising.

Patients diagnosed with Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will be included. The demographic information (age, occupation, height, body weight, etc.) and clinical status (duration of diagnosis, medication dosage, etc.) of all participants will be recorded. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale will be used to determine the cognitive level of patients. The motor assessment of patients will be performed using the Cognitive Parkinson's Disease Assessment Scale III. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale will be used to determine the cognitive level of patients. Functional balance and mobility will be assessed using the Timed Up and Go Test and the 10-meter Walk Test. Repetitive movement performance will be assessed using the 5 Repeat Sit-to-Stand Test, and balance level will be assessed using the Activity-Specific Balance Confidence Scale. Quality of life will be assessed using the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire. Motivation to exercise and self-assessment will be determined using the Behavioral Modifications to Exercise Scale-2. These assessment criteria will be re-evaluated before and after the exercise program. Patients will be given an exercise diary and asked to keep it throughout the program. The System Usability Scale will be used to evaluate the usability of the website developed for this thesis study.

Participants will be randomly assigned to 2 groups. The control group will complete the exercise program assigned to them continuously via the web-based system. The experimental group will complete the exercise program assigned to them at their preferred time within the same day. Exercise programs will be planned for 8 weeks.
