Home Physiotherapy in Frailty in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this protocol is to evaluate the effects of a home-based therapeutic exercise program applied in patients with PD to reverse frailty. The design of this study is experimental, prospective, randomized and single blind. The study population that will be part of this study will be men and women with a diagnosis of PD belonging to the Health Area V of the Health Service of the Principality of Asturias, Spain.

Clinical Trial Description

Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the association of tremor, rigidity, akinesia-bradykinesia and loss of postural reflexes. Non-motor symptoms such as cognitive impairment may also develop. Frailty is a syndrome characterized by a decrease in physiological reserve that results in an individual's increased vulnerability, which can lead to a variety of adverse factors when exposed to stressors. There are three prominent theoretical frameworks for the study of frailty, the physical model developed by Fried et al., the deficit accumulation model by Rockwood et al. and the biopsychosocial model by Gobbens et al. PD and frailty are highly prevalent in older people and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Frailty is a reversible condition, especially during the early stages, so early detection is important. Previous studies have been carried out with the application of exercise programs to reverse frailty in older adults, obtaining good results at a physical level. General objective: - Evaluate the effects of a therapeutic home exercise program applied in patients with PD to reverse frailty. Specific objectives: - Evaluate the effects of a home therapeutic exercise program on motor and non-motor symptoms, as well as on quality of life, balance and gait. - Identify the characteristics of the patients who obtain the greatest improvement. - Evaluate the effects of a home therapeutic exercise program after a period of time of three months after the intervention. Study design: experimental, prospective, randomized and single-blinded. Study population: The subjects that will be part of this study will be men and women with a diagnosis of PD belonging to the Health Area V of the Health Service of the Principality of Asturias, Spain. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
