Overview

Brief Summary

Through rTMS, motor dysfunction and non-motor dysfunction of PD patients can be improved, working and living ability and quality of life of patients can be improved, and social burden and family burden can be reduced.

Detailed Description

According to the inclusion criteria, a total of 200 patients with Parkinson's disease were planned to be enrolled in each center, and randomly divided into control group (conventional treatment) and observation group (conventional treatment +rTMS) for a treatment cycle of 4 weeks. They were followed up for 3 months before treatment, 2 weeks and 4 weeks, respectively, after treatment, to evaluate the efficacy and function. The unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) was used. Cognitive function assessment Monteller Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA); Barthel Index for daily living activities; Depression assessment Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD); Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA); Sleep assessment PD Sleep Scale (PDSS); Pain assessment King Parkinson's Pain Assessment (KPPS) and adverse events were recorded.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Unified Parkinson's disease rating Scale (UPDRS)

Time Frame: The assessments are conducted at the baseline, 2nd week, 4th week, and 3 months after the end of treatment.

16 items, each with a score of 0-4, and the score is directly proportional to the severity of PD motor symptoms.

Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA)

Time Frame: The assessments are conducted at the baseline, 2nd week, 4th week, and 3 months after the end of treatment.

Full score of 30 points,\>=26 points normal,. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) on a scale of 18-26, moderate on a scale of 10-17, and severe on a scale of\<10.

King's Parkinson's Pain Assessment (KPPS)

Time Frame: The assessments are conducted at the baseline, 2nd week, 4th week, and 3 months after the end of treatment.

Evaluate the pain degree and quality of life of patients with Parkinson's disease, including 14 items in 7 aspects, including skeletal muscle pain, Chronic pain, symptom fluctuation related pain, nocturnal pain, orofacial pain, distention pain, and nerve root pain. Each score is expressed as pain severity (0-3 levels) multiplied by frequency (0-4 levels), that is, 0-12 points. The total score is 168 points. The higher the score, the more severe the pain.

PD Sleep Scale (PDSS)

Time Frame: The assessments are conducted at the baseline, 2nd week, 4th week, and 3 months after the end of treatment.

Evaluate the patient's sleep status, with a total of 15 items on the scale. Each item is scored on a scale of 0-10 points, with a lower score indicating poorer sleep status.

Activities of daily living Assessment - Barthel

Time Frame: The assessments are conducted at the baseline, 2nd week, 4th week, and 3 months after the end of treatment.

The total score of the index is 100 points, and the higher the score, the better the self-care ability and the less dependence. Those scoring above 60 can basically complete basic Activities of daily living, 59-41 need some help to complete, 40-21 need a lot of help. Those who score below 20 are in complete need of help and cannot take care of themselves.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD)(The assessments are conducted at the baseline, 2nd week, 4th week, and 3 months after the end of treatment.)
  • Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA)(The assessments are conducted at the baseline, 2nd week, 4th week, and 3 months after the end of treatment.)
