Clinical Trial Summary

To compare the effects of exer-gaming with conventional physiotherapy on balance and gait in Parkinson's patients


Clinical Trial Description

Parkinsons Disease is a progressive neuro degenerative disorder manifested by a broad spectrum of motor and non-motor features. Approximately 500 000 people suffer from Parkinson's Disease in the United States and there are approximately 50,000 new cases reported annually . Postural instability, impaired gait, and freezing episodes are all common occurrences in Parkinson's. Agility activities, including supine-to-stand, ambulation, turning, and reaching activities, have been used to reduce freezing episodes, particularly in the early stages of disease. Conventional physical therapy(balance training, stretching and strengthening exercises) being used for the balance and gait training in Parkinson. In recent time, there has been development in such treatment plan. Virtual reality based games have been used for such purposes. This study will look at the effects of virtual reality gaming in patients suffering from Parkinson's disease and its outcomes in term of gait and balance training. A randomized clinical trial will be performed. total 16 patients will be included in the study and will be divided into two groups. VR Group will be receiving virtual reality based exercise plan while the CONVENTIONAL group will receive conventional physical therapy . Division will be done through lottery method. Unified parkinson's disease rating scale and dynamic gait index will be used to collect the data. Treatment frequency will be three days per week for three months . ;
