Efficacy of a physical therapy program in patients with Parkinson’s disease: a randomized controlled trial. Arch Phys Med Rehabil 2005;86:626-32. Objective To investigate the effects of a physical therapy (PT) program in groups of people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Design Randomized controlled trial with a crossover design. Setting Two outpatient rehabilitation clinics in Boston and Amsterdam, respectively. Participants Sixty-eight subjects diagnosed with typical, idiopathic PD, Hoehn and Yahr stage \II\ or III, and stable medication use. Intervention Group A received \PT\ and medication therapy (MT) for the first 6 weeks, followed by \MT\ only for the second 6 weeks. Group B received only \MT\ for the first 6 weeks and \PT\ and \MT\ for the second 6 weeks. Main outcome measures The Sickness Impact Profile (SIP-68), the mobility portion of the SIP-68, the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), and comfortable walking speed (CWS) at baseline, 6-week, 12-week, and 3-month follow-up. Results At 6 weeks, differences between groups were significant for the \SIP\ mobility (P=.015; effect size ES=.55), for \CWS\ (P=.012; ES=.49), for the activities of daily living (ADL) section of the \UPDRS\ (P=.014; ES=.45), and for the total \UPDRS\ (P=.007; ES=.56). The total \SIP\ and the mentation and motor sections of the \UPDRS\ did not differ significantly between groups. Significant differences were found at 3 months compared with baseline for CWS, the \UPDRS\ ADL, and total scores. Conclusions People with \PD\ derive benefits in the short term from \PT\ group treatment, in addition to their MT, for quality of life related to mobility, CWS, and ADLs; long-term benefits were found in CWS, \UPDRS\ ADL, and total scores but varied between groups.
