简要总结
The aim of the study is to assess the role of Action Observation Treatment (AOT) and Motor Imagery (MI) in the rehabilitation of Parkinson's disease patients, as compared to a control condition. Main outcome measures will be the results in two functional scales (FIM, UPDRS) and kinematics parameters obtained from gait analysis. Data at two months and six months follow up, respectively, will be also collected.

结局指标
主要结局
change in Parkinson disease motor symptoms
时间窗: Before treatment, within one week after treatment, two months' follow up
to assess the change in motor status of the patient, the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) will be used, and it consists in a 5-point scale (0 = no signs; 4 = severe). UPDRS will be administered before treatment, within one week after the end of the treatment (after treatment) and two months' follow up.
change in the functional status of the patient
时间窗: Before treatment, within one week after treatment, two months' follow up
to assess the change in the functional status of the patient, the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) will be used. FIM consists in a 7-point scale (1 = \<25% independence; total assistance required, 7 = 100% independence), and it can detect changes in the patient's status in 18 categories, focusing on motor and cognitive function. Functional patients' status will assess before treatment, within one week after the end of the treatment (after treatment) and two months' follow up.
change in kinematic parameters of the gait (velocity, footing, pace, step length)
时间窗: Before treatment, within one week after treatment, two months' follow up
to assess the change of patient's gait parameters, the kinematic analysis will be used (i.e. gait analysis). The gait analysis allows to detect fine-grain changes in kinematic parameters of the movement, through a non-invasive methodology. Gait analysis will be performed before treatment, within one week after the end of the treatment (after treatment) and two months' follow up.
