Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the impact of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in Parkinson's Patients in the Community (≥60 year old) with swallowing disorders. It primarily aims to address two key aspects: 1) the prevalence of Parkinson's Diseases among community-dwelling elderly individuals, and 2) the effects of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in community-dwelling Parkinson's Patients. All patients are required to undergo a continuous three-week (21 days) Simple Gymnastics Training, with weekends off and training conducted only on weekdays. The training will be conducted two sessions per day, lasting 30 minutes each.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale

  The score of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale ranges 0 to 199 points. Higher scores reflect worse outcomes. This assessment tool includes items such as non-motor symptoms, motor function, activities of daily living, and complications, each with corresponding scoring criteria. Higher scores reflect worse outcomes. The scale is a commonly used assessment tool that can be used to evaluate the severity and progression of Parkinson's disease, as well as the effectiveness of rehabilitation treatment.
