简要总结
The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of Virtual Reality and Motor Imagery along with Routine Physical Therapy in motor function and balance in patients with Parkinson disease.
详细描述
This randomized control trial is the single blinded, single centered study. Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials guidelines are used as study protocol. Sixty three patients of Parkinson Disease (Modified Hoehn and Yahr stages I-III) will randomly allocate into three groups.
Group A will be given a 60 min session of Virtual Reality along with Routine Physical Therapy.
Group B will be given a 60 min session of Motor Imagery along with Routine Physical Therapy.
Group C will be given a 40 min session of Routine Physical Therapy and after a short period of rest,20 min for walking and cycling.
These treatment sessions will be given to each group at every alternative day (3 days per week) for 12 weeks.

结局指标
主要结局
Range of Motion
时间窗: 12th Week
Goniometer has been the most widely used tool for measuring joint range of motion. To ensure reliable measurement, standardized, specific positions and landmarks are used to measure each joint movement.
Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: 12th Week
The Visual Analog Scale is a 10 cm line with anchor statements on the left, no pain and on the right, extreme pain.
Foot and Ankle Disability Index
时间窗: 12th Week
The Foot and Ankle Disability Index has 26 items. Each item is scored from 0; unable to do, to 4; no difficulty at all. The Foot and Ankle Disability Index has a total point value of 104 points.
Foot and Ankle Ability Measure
时间窗: 12th Week
The Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) is a self-report outcome instrument/questionaire developed to assess physical function for individuals with foot and ankle related impairments. 8-item Sports Subscale. Each item is scored on a 5-point Likert scale (4 to 0) from 'no difficulty at all' to 'unable to do'. Item score totals, which range from 0 to 84 for the ADL subscale and 0 to 32 for the Sports subscale, were transformed to percentage scores. Higher scores represent higher levels of function for each subscale, with 100% representing no dysfunction.
