Brief Summary:
The study aims to measure the improvement in functional capacity in a group of elderly people suffering from early-stage Parkinson's disease (Hoehn \& Yahr scale 1-3), following a telerehabilitation intervention integrated with BTS TELEREHAB technology.
Detailed Description:
The DHEAL-COM-PD project aims to evaluate the improvement in physical performance of Parkinson's disease patients following an integrated rehabilitation intervention with technology in telerehabilitation. In fact, the project involves the administration of a rehabilitation intervention in telerehabilitation integrated with BTS TELEREHAB technology, which is able to recognize the patient's movements and analyze them according to quantitative (repetitions) and qualitative (postural and balance)-indicators.
The trial is a feasibility study, with single-blind randomized controlled trial type experimental design. Forty older adults with Parkinson's disease will be recruited for the study and randomized into two groups: the experimental group, that will perform tele-rehabilitation at home with a non-immersive virtual reality system, and the control group. Patients in the control group will be offered activities to perform at home, with the same frequency, in line with the usual care activities already proposed by the Rehabilitation Unit.
