简要总结
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition, causing impairments primarily in the motor system. There is increase in burden of Parkinson’s disease, due to increase life expectancy of individual with PD (improved medical facilities) leading to longer disease duration. Also, growing industrialization causes more use of pesticides, solvents and metals leads to increase incidence and prevalence of PD.
There is enormous supportive scientific evidence that established important role of physiotherapy in PD. However many barriers are recognized in utilization of in-person physiotherapy services by individuals with PD like cost of transportation and lack of physiotherapy services in vicinity. This calls for urgent need of alternate models of rehabilitation and in this regard tele-rehabilitation seems to be very viable option for rehabilitation of individuals with PD.
Individuals with PD, form an optimal target population for tele-rehabilitation because they require long–term rehabilitation and tele-rehabilitation will help to prevent discontinuity in continuum of care during outpatient rehabilitative phase. Depending upon the tool used in tele-rehabilitation, it can be classified as synchronous (i.e., interaction between therapist and patient at the real time, through audio and video calls), or asynchronous (i.e., interactions between therapist and patient do not occur in real time). So, present study intends to investigate and compare effectiveness of synchronous and asynchronous model of tele-rehabilitation for individuals with Parkinson’s disease.
