Brief Summary
|
This cross-sectional observation study aims to associate fatigue using PFS-16 scale, with postural stability measured using BTrackS system and functional mobility using timed up and go test in persons with Parkinson’s Disease. The study will also explore the relationship of fatigue with clinical impairments, quality of life, community mobility. A total number of eighty eight participants will be recruited for the study. The study will be conducted in the Neurorehabilitation Unit of Kasturba Hospital, Manipal, over a period of twelve months. Ethical approval has been obtained and CTRI registration is being completed. |
