简要总结
This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the effects of Strategy Training and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) on balance, gait, and functional independence in patients with Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's disease leads to impaired motor function, reduced balance, and decreased independence. Physiotherapy interventions such as strategy-based training and PNF may help improve mobility and functional performance. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: one receiving Strategy Training and the other receiving PNF intervention. Outcome measures including balance tests, gait assessment, and functional independence scales will be evaluated before and after treatment. The study aims to determine which intervention is more effective in improving functional outcomes in Parkinson's disease patients.

结局指标
主要结局
10-Meter Walk Test (10MWT)
时间窗: 6 weeks
The 10-Meter Walk Test (10MWT) is an effective instrument that is applied to determine the walking speed and functional mobility in different populations.
Tandem Stance Test
时间窗: 6 weeks
Tandem Stance Test is one of the essential clinical tests of balance and postural stability particularly among older adults. It involves getting a person to stand on their heels to toes and this is used to determine people who are at risk of falling.
Pastor Test (Shoulder Tug)
时间窗: 6 weeks
Pastor Test (Shoulder Tug test) is a test used to determine the shoulder stability (especially the anterior shoulder instability). In the test, the examiner pulls the patient using his arm as he keeps the shoulder constant to reveal too much movement or pain.
30 sec Chair Test
时间窗: 6 weeks
30 sec Chair Test; A popular test for assessing lower body strength, balance, and functional mobility especially in older adults is the chair test. It gauges a person's capacity to carry out daily tasks on their own by timing how long it takes them to get up from a sitting position and sit down again.
Retropulsion Test
时间窗: 6 weeks
Retropulsion Test is a clinical examination, which is mainly applied to determine the postural stability and balance in a person, particularly the people with Parkinson disease. In this test, the examiner smoothly pulls the shoulders of the patient in the standing position where the patient stands in a relaxed position, and the examiner sees whether the patient can balance or not.
Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS)
时间窗: 6 weeks
Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) as one of the important assessment instruments in the study of Parkinson disease and its clinical application. (UPDRS) scale is a comprehensive tool, employed to assess treatment issues related to the treatment of the Parkinson disease, the daily life activities as well as the motor and non-motor symptoms.
