简要总结
Patients with Parkinson's Disease frequently present impaired postural control that leads to loss of stability and increased risk of falls.Core system, includes passive structures of the thoracolumbar spine and pelvis that work as a unit to stabilize the body and spine against forces generated from distal body segments as well as forces generated from expected or unexpected perturbations.The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of an intervention based on core stability in patients with Parkinson's Disease.
详细描述
Core muscle coordination is important because lack of sufficient core muscle coordination can lead to decreased efficiency of postural control and functional activity. Clinical manifestations of patients with Parkinson's Disease include postural instability. Core system could be relevant to be included in an intervention. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of an intervention based on core stability in patients with Parkinson's Disease.

研究组 & 干预措施
Experimental group
Patients were included in a core stability intervention. It will be done with different stages and increasing gradually.
干预措施: Core stability (Other)
Control group
Standard intervention consisting of exercises aimed at improving balance.
干预措施: Standard intervention (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in dynamic balance
时间窗: Change from baseline dynamic balance at 8 weeks
Dynamic balance is going to be assessed with the Mini-Balance Evaluation System Test. It was developed to identify the postural control systems that underly poor functional balance. It contains four subscales: anticipatory postural control, reactive postural control, sensory orientation and stability in gait. It includes 14 items scored on a 3 level ordinal scale. The maximum total score is 28 points with higher scores indicating better balance.
次要结局
- Balance confidence(Baseline, 8 weeks)
- Static balance(Baseline, 8 weeks)
