Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of video dance class and unsupervised physical activity on clinical-functional parameters, self-isolation and non-motors symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Conditions

Parkinson Disease; Parkinson Disease 10

Keywords

Functionality; movement disorders; rehabilitation; depressive symptoms; quality of life; cognition; self-isolation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Quality of life (QoL)

  The quality of life (QoL) will be measured by the Parkinson's Disease Quality of life (PDQ-8). PDQ-8 is a reduced version of a specific health status questionnaire comprising 39 items, with 8 items. Respondents are requested to affirm one of five ordered response categories according to how often, due to their PD, they have experienced the problem defined by each item. Each item is grouped into eight scales that are scored by expressing summed item scores as a percentage score ranging between 0 and 100 (100¼more health problems).

  Change from baseline at 12 weeks.

• Depressive symptoms - Geriatric Depression Scale - 15 item

  This outcome will be measure for the Geriatric Depression Scale - 15 item. The scale consists of 15 dichotomous questions in which participants are asked to answer yes or no about how they felt over the past week (for instance, "Do the patient feel that their life is empty?," Do the patient feel that their situation is hopeless?). Scores range from 0 to 15 with higher scores indicating more depressive symptoms.

  Change from baseline at 12 weeks.

• Physical Activity - International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ)

  This outcome will be measure for the International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ). The IPAQ comprises a set of 4 questionnaires. Long (5 activity domains asked independently) and short (4 generic items) versions for use by either telephone or self-administered methods are available. The purpose of the questionnaires is to provide common instruments that can be used to obtain internationally comparable data on health-related physical activity.

  Change from baseline at 12 weeks.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Cognitive function - Montreal Cognitive Assessment by telephone

  Change from baseline at 12 weeks.

• Falls - Falls Efficacy Scale - International

  Change from baseline at 12 weeks.

• Functional lower extremity strength -Five Times Sit to Stand Test

  Change from baseline at 12 weeks.

Study Arms (3)

video Dance classes

EXPERIMENTAL

The dance program consists of dance lessons inspired by Forró rhythm and Samba rhythm. Classes will be divided into four stages: Joint warm-up and stretching on the chairs; strengthening, balance, and rhythm exercises with the support of the chair; exercises inspired by the samba and forró (Brazilian ballroom dance) basic steps; and Final cool down. The classes will be held through a recorded video that must be played twice a week. Each video class lasts 30 minutes. The video Dance classes will happen in the period of self-isolation and social distance during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Other: Video Dance classes

Unsupervised physical activities

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The unsupervised physical activity programs will happen in the period of self-isolation and social distance during the Covid-19 pandemic. The classes will be held through a recorded video that must be played twice a week. Each video class lasts 30 minutes.

Other: Unsupervised physical activities

control group

NO INTERVENTION

The control group will be people with PD, engaged, before the Covid-19 pandemic, in the Dance, the Nordic Walk and the Aquatic Jogging extension projects at Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul but did not do any type of physical activity during the Covid-19 pandemic.
