Assessment of a Special Modality of Back Muscles Strengthening for Postural Deformations in Parkinsonian Patient — ISOPARK  

Parkinson Disease Clinical Trial

Official title: Impact of Isocinetism on the Disorders of the Spinal Statics of the Parkinsonian Patient

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Parkinson's patients have postural disorders. These disorders are frequent in Martinique. Physiotherapeutic rehabilitation is essential because these disorders are generally non dopa-sensitive.

Clinical Trial Description

Postural disorders are very common in Martinique, in patients often having an atypical form of the Parkinson's disease. Physiotherapy rehabilitation is essential because these disorders are generally non-dopa-sensitive. Isokinetic muscle strength may reduce postural disorder in Parkinson's disease.

Isokinetic device rehabilitation promotes maximum muscular contraction at constant speed; the resistance of the machine continuously adapting to the force developed by the subject. As the spinal muscle strength gain is superior to conventional post-rehabilitation motor function, the improvement in postural instability should be greater than that achieved with conventional rehabilitation. A better postural support should thus result in a decrease in the risk of falling and an improvement in the quality of walking. ;
