Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this randomized clinical trail is to identify the impact of treadmill training on walking while doing dual task in patients with Parkinson's disease. By improving walking speed, bradykinesia would be reduced in Parkinson's patients. So, the findings of this study can help in formulation of future guidelines for management of Parkinson's that will help the clinicians to treat such patients in more efficient way.


Clinical Trial Description

A RCT that investigated the effect of Treadmill training and physiotherapy in patient with PD using dual tasking as outcome measure.105 Parkinson's disease (PD) patients; these are the subject who received treadmill training and physiotherapy for 14 days. Both intervention helps the patients to enhance the dual task gait velocity. A study is to identify the effects of incremental speed-dependent treadmill training on postural instability and fear of falling in Parkinson's disease to observe the postural stability by incremental speed dependent treadmill training. 54 patient of Parkinson's disease (PD) was randomly allocated in to experimental and control group. 8-week training program was conducted including stretching, Range of motion exercises (ROM), and treadmill training. Walking distance of the training group was gradually increased after 16 training sessions. The training group's scores on the Berg Balance Test, Dynamic Gait Index, and Falls Efficacy Scale dramatically improved after the training program. While the control group, shows no significant improvement in outcome measurements. Specific exercise regimens, such as incremental speed-dependent treadmill training, may increase mobility and minimize fear of fall in-patient with Parkinson's disease. GAP:The study's relatively small sample size is one of its limitations. There is least work done on speed dependent treadmill training and its effect on dual task performance in-patient with Parkinson's disease. More research is require, to compare various treatment options with incremental speed-dependent treadmill training for Parkinson's disease patients. ;
