“…For example, only 14.8% of PwP in our study utilized physical therapy. This is in the lower range of rates previously reported in other countries, which ranged for physical therapy from 14% in the United States to 60% in the Netherlands [ 18 , 43 – 45 ]. Among the services on which participants reported, physical therapy had the highest utilization rate, while hydrotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech and language pathology had substantially lower rates.…”

Background Current evidence on chronic conditions favors promotion of health behaviors as a mean to positively impact health outcomes. In Parkinson’s disease, performing health behaviors is indicated as a means to fight the long-lasting burden of the disease. Understanding actual engagement in health behaviors and patient activation and their association to function and health-related quality of life is therefore important. Our objectives were, among people with Parkinson’s disease: (1) to characterize health behaviors including utilization of rehabilitative treatments, physical activity, and patient activation levels, and (2) to test the associations between these health behaviors and health outcomes. Methods A cross-sectional study of 88 people with Parkinson’s disease (age 66.84 ± 8.8) was conducted. Participants answered questionnaires measuring health behaviors including utilization of health professions treatments, physical activity, patient activation, and health outcomes consisting of function and health-related quality of life. Linear regression models were conducted to test associations between measured health behaviors, function and health-related quality of life. Results Participants rarely engage in rehabilitative treatments, but showed high levels of patient activation. Controlled by demographics and disease severity, physical activity and patient activation were associated with function (b = 0.41, p < .001; b = 0.2, p = .02, respectively) and physical activity but not patient activation, which was associated with health-related quality of life (b = 0.19, p = .03). There was also interaction effects of physical activity and non-motor symptoms, and physical activity and motor symptoms on health-related quality of life (b = 0.19, p = .02 and b = − 0.22, p = .01, respectively). Conclusions In respect to their potential health-related benefits for people with Parkinson’s disease, health professionals’ treatments are underutilized. Findings supported the importance of health behaviors for maintaining function and health-related quality of life among people with Parkinson’s disease. They also show a differential contribution of motor and non-motor symptoms to the association between physical activity and quality of life. It is suggested that policy makers encourage opportunities for physical activity tailored for people with Parkinson’s disease and adopt a proactive stance towards enhancing awareness and use of rehabilitation services.

“…O presente estudo identificou a necessidade de mais pesquisas sobre o assunto, visto que apesar de ter modelos de pesquisas relacionados 15,16 , estes possuem objetivos e instrumentos diferentes 15,17,18,19 , demonstrando uma escassez de estudos na literatura principalmente sobre a escala SATIS-BR nessa população, bem como no modelo de intervenção. Pode-se ainda reforçar a relevância de programas terapêuticos alternativos e dinâmicos que busquem o aumento da atividade física e o cuidado psicoterapêutico, visto que estes podem estar correlacionados com processos neurofisiológicos positivos 15 .…”

The evaluation of parkinsonian satisfaction and its correlation with the balance are still not established, so it is fundamental to use instruments capable of measuring these aspects. The objective was to verify the satisfaction of Parkinsonians in Group Physiotherapy treatment in the Training Circuit Format (FGCT) and correlate with the balance. The initial evaluation was performed using the Berg Modified Scale (EMB) to evaluate the static and dynamic balance and after the intervention with FGCT, the second evaluation was added the Abbreviated Patient Satisfaction Assessment Scale (SATIS-BR), which analyzes the patients' perception about the aspects of the services received, consisting of quantitative and qualitative questions. Statistical analysis revealed no significant difference in BMS (p = 0.354) and showed a weak correlation between BMS x SATIS-BR (r = 0.057 and p = 0.875). The FGCT was able to maintain the clinical picture in the analyzed population.

“…In other countries, specific information on rehabilitation therapy use in PD patients is limited. In the Czech Republic, a survey of PD patients from 2013 to 2015 at a single hospital reported that 28% had received physiotherapy prescribed for PD [ 35 ]. The authors claimed that implementation of the European physiotherapy guideline for PD and the introduction of an efficient model of care such as ParkinsonNet are needed.…”

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by typical motor symptoms such as resting tremor, bradykinesia, and rigidity, as well as non-motor manifestations, including psychiatric symptoms, autonomic dysfunction, and cognitive impairment. These symptoms induce a marked impact on functional independence in daily activities and quality of life in PD patients. Recent guidelines recommend adequate rehabilitation education and treatment from the early stages of PD, and rehabilitation has become part of standard care for PD. In Korea, the number of patients with PD has more than tripled over 15 years, from 39,265 in 2004 to 125,607 in 2019. However, the rehabilitation usage of PD patients has not changed remarkably, and it remains suboptimal in Korea compared to several developed countries, which have advanced and disseminated guidelines and implemented specialized care delivery systems for PD over the past 20 years. Additional efforts are warranted to provide adequate rehabilitation therapies for PD patients in Korea.
