About this study

Official title: How Traditional Chinese Medicine Exercise Improves Parkinson Disease: A Preliminary Study

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the impact of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in Parkinson's Patients in the Community (≥60 year old) with swallowing disorders. It primarily aims to address two key aspects: 1) the prevalence of Parkinson's Diseases among community-dwelling elderly individuals, and 2) the effects of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in community-dwelling Parkinson's Patients. All patients are required to undergo a continuous three-week (21 days) Simple Gymnastics Training, with weekends off and training conducted only on weekdays. The training will be conducted two sessions per day, lasting 30 minutes each.

In the early stages of Parkinson's disease, many patients do not seek medical attention. The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the impact of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in Parkinson's Patients in the Community (≥60 year old) with swallowing disorders. It primarily aims to address two key aspects: 1) the prevalence of Parkinson's Diseases among community-dwelling elderly individuals, and 2) the effects of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in community-dwelling Parkinson's Patients. All patients are required to undergo a continuous three-week (21 days) Simple Gymnastics Training, with weekends off and training conducted only on weekdays. The training will be conducted two sessions per day, lasting 30 minutes each.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Simple Gymnastics TrainingBehavioural

    This is a simple gymnastics training that includes body swings and waist twists, as well as exercises targeting the joints in the arms and legs in various directions. It aims to help Parkinson's patients improve their physical mobility. Each training session lasts for 30 minutes, with low intensity and easy to stick to.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale

    The score of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale ranges 0 to 199 points. Higher scores reflect worse outcomes.

    This assessment tool includes items such as non-motor symptoms, motor function, activities of daily living, and complications, each with corresponding scoring criteria. Higher scores reflect worse outcomes. The scale is a commonly used assessment tool that can be used to evaluate the severity and progression of Parkinson's disease, as well as the effectiveness of rehabilitation treatment.

    Measured: day 1 and day 21

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The Berg Balance Scale

    The Berg Balance Scale is a scale used to assess balance ability. It is widely used in rehabilitation and research for patients with Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders.

    The scale consists of 14 items, each involving different balance tasks and actions such as standing, turning, walking, and more. Each item is scored based on the performance level, ranging from 0 to 4, with a maximum total score of 56. Higher scores indicate better balance ability.

    The scale ranges 0 to 56. Higher scores indicate better outcomes.

    Measured: day 1 and day 21

  2. Patient Health Questionnaire-9

    Patient Health Questionnaire-9 is a scale used to assess symptoms of depression, consisting of 9 items. Each item involves different aspects of depressive symptoms such as mood, sleep, appetite, etc. Each item is scored based on the frequency and severity of symptoms in the past two weeks, with a score range from 0 to 27. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Patient Health Questionnaire-9 is widely used for screening and assessment of depression.

    The scores range from 0 to 27. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.

    Measured: day 1 and day 21

  3. Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7

    Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 is a scale used to assess symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder, consisting of 7 items. Each item involves different aspects of anxiety symptoms such as worry, tension, unease, etc. Each item is scored based on the frequency and severity of symptoms in the past two weeks, with a score range from 0 to 21. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 is widely used for screening and assessment of generalized anxiety disorder.

    The score ranges from 0 to 21. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.

    Measured: day 1 and day 21
