Effectiveness of a Home-Based Exercise Program Supported by Self-Management Education in People With Parkinson Disease

9. september 2026 opdateret af: Mehri Güner, Istanbul University
This randomized, assessor-blinded clinical trial evaluates whether a structured self-management education and home exercise program improves balance, walking capacity, fall-related concerns, upper-extremity dexterity, and quality of life in adults with Parkinson disease. Fifty-five participants aged 45-80 years will be randomized to an intervention or control arm. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, after the 8-week intervention, and at Week 16. The primary outcome is the Berg Balance Scale.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Participants meeting the eligibility criteria at Istanbul University, Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation will be assigned by a computer-generated randomization procedure to two parallel groups. The intervention group will receive a clinician-led self-management education session, supervised instruction in a home exercise program, an exercise video, an exercise log, and weekly telephone support to monitor and encourage adherence. The home exercise program will include posture, relaxation and deep-breathing exercises; active range-of-motion and stretching exercises for the upper and lower extremities; hip and knee strengthening; rhythmic gait training; and balance, coordination, and proprioception exercises. Participants will be instructed to perform the program three days per week for 30-45 minutes per session for eight weeks. The control group will receive a booklet containing general information about Parkinson disease and will continue to receive usual clinical care. The control group will not receive the structured self-management session, supervised exercise instruction, exercise video, prescribed home exercise program, or weekly adherence-support telephone calls during the study period. An assessor blinded to group allocation will perform outcome assessments at baseline, Week 8, and Week 16.

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Self-Management Education and Home Exercise
Participants receive a clinician-led self-management education session; practical exercise instruction with a physiotherapist; an exercise video and educational booklet; an exercise log; and weekly telephone adherence support. The home exercise program is performed 3 days per week for 30-45 minutes per session for 8 weeks.
The program covers disease information and symptom-management strategies. Exercises include posture, relaxation and deep breathing; active range-of-motion and stretching for the upper and lower extremities; hip and knee strengthening; rhythmic gait training; and balance, coordination, and proprioception tasks including semi-tandem walking, weight shifting, and bending/returning upright. Weekly telephone contact is used to monitor and encourage adherence
Aktiv komparator: Control Group
In addition to standard medical treatment, participants in the control group received an educational booklet containing general information about Parkinson disease and exercise recommendations. They did not receive a structured exercise program or any additional follow-up during the study.

Tidsramme
Berg Balance Scale Score
Tidsramme: Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
The Berg Balance Scale is a short, safe, and simple balance test that measures an individual's ability to maintain balance while performing functional tasks. The scale consists of 14 items. Performance on each activity is rated using a five-point scale ranging from 0, "unable to perform," to 4, "able to perform independently and safely." The items assess activities in which maintaining position becomes progressively more difficult and the base of support is reduced. They include daily functional tasks such as standing unsupported, sitting unsupported, moving from standing to sitting, performing transfers, standing in tandem, and standing on one leg. The maximum total score is 56, with higher scores indicating better balance

Tidsramme
Change in Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS)
Tidsramme: Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
The MDS-UPDRS is a scale consisting of four main parts designed to evaluate Parkinson disease. Part I includes non-motor experiences of daily living and is divided into two subcomponents: Part IA is completed by the investigator using information obtained from the patient and caregiver, whereas Part IB is completed independently by the patient. Part II focuses on the patient's motor experiences of daily living and is designed as a self-administered questionnaire. Part III includes the motor examination and is administered by the assessor. Part IV evaluates motor complications and is completed using both information obtained from the patient and the assessor's clinical observations. Together, these four parts aim to provide a comprehensive evaluation of both the motor and non-motor effects of the disease
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
Timed Up and Go Test
Tidsramme: Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
The Timed Up and Go Test can be used to evaluate functional mobility. Patients are instructed to stand up from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around, walk back, and sit down again. A marker should be used to indicate the end of the 3-meter distance, and patients who use an assistive device should use it during the test. The time is measured and recorded in seconds. A time of 10 seconds or less indicates that the patient can walk independently and has a low risk of falling. A time greater than 30 seconds indicates that the patient may occasionally require assistance and has a high risk of falling. In patients with Parkinson disease, a test duration longer than 11.5 seconds indicates an increased risk of falling
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
6-Minute Walk Test Distance
Tidsramme: Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
Walking capacity can be evaluated using the 6-Minute Walk Test, which is performed in a 30-meter-long corridor. Patients are instructed to complete as many laps as possible along the corridor, and the total distance walked at the end of 6 minutes is recorded. At the beginning of each minute, the administrator reminds the patient of the remaining time and provides verbal encouragement. Patients may use an assistive device if needed
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
Falls Efficacy Scale-International Score
Tidsramme: Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
The Falls Efficacy Scale was developed to evaluate fear of falling while performing 10 tasks related to activities of daily living. In 2005, because the FES developed by Tinetti et al. did not directly represent the relationship between fear of falling and self-efficacy, it was expanded into the 16-item Falls Efficacy Scale-International. The items of the FES are related to basic activities of daily living in older adults and do not evaluate social activities or fear of falling in broader life situations. In response to these criticisms, the wording and rating scale of the original FES were revised by replacing the term "confident" with "concerned." The total score ranges from 16, indicating no concern, to 64, indicating extreme concern
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 Score
Tidsramme: Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
The Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 is a widely used self-report questionnaire designed to measure disease-specific quality of life in patients with Parkinson disease from their own perspective. It was first developed and validated in the United Kingdom in 1995. The instrument consists of 39 items divided into eight domains that measure different health-related areas affected to varying degrees in Parkinson disease. The eight domains are mobility (10 items), activities of daily living (6 items), emotional well-being (6 items), stigma (4 items), social support (3 items), cognition (4 items), communication (3 items), and bodily discomfort (3 items). Responses are based on each individual's experiences during the previous month and are rated on a five-point Likert scale: 0 = never, 1 = occasionally, 2 = sometimes, 3 = often, and 4 = always. Higher scores indicate a greater impact of the disease on the relevant quality-of-life domain or on the individual's overall life experience
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
Box and Block Test
Tidsramme: Baseline, Week 8, and Week 16
The Box and Block Test, developed and validated by Mathiowetz, is a method designed to evaluate individuals with manual dysfunction. The purpose of the test is to assess and measure manual dexterity and the functions of grasping, holding, and releasing objects. The assessment is performed using a box divided into two equal compartments. The patient is instructed to transfer small wooden blocks from one compartment to the other for one minute. After three trials with each hand, the number of blocks transferred is recorded separately for the right and left hands. The BBT is considered a rapid, simple, and reliable test that is commonly used in older individuals and people who have experienced a stroke

Modified Hoehn and Yahr Staging
Tidsramme: baseline, week 8, week 16
The staging system developed by Hoehn and Yahr in 1967 classifies the disease into five stages and allows both patients and clinicians to easily define disease severity and evaluate progression. Stages 1.5 and 2.5 were added to the Modified Hoehn and Yahr staging scale. In the literature, stages 1 and 2 are classified as "mild," stage 3 as "moderate," and stages 4 and 5 as stages involving "severe" signs and symptoms
