Tiivistelmä
Since Parkinson’s disease (PD) has revealed its dreadful nature, notably by affecting a larger morbidity rate in the human’s population, plenty of interrogations have been formulated, and some answers suggested. Nonetheless, today, healthcare communities are still seeking to ascertain how to treat the disease at best.
Physiotherapy is a field addressing responsive care for patient with PD. Thereupon, as walking ability is threatened by the disease, and considering that it is one of the main attributes of human function, there are significance reasons of preserving this skill. In fact, the correlation between disability, limitation or participation, quality of life and gait aptitude is evidently highlighted. In this context, relevancy of treadmill exercise efficacy in the objective of improving gait ability in early stage of Parkinson’s disease is questioned.
Finding out evidence-based data is the aim of this systematized literature review, which focalized its inquiry in recent publications. The review defined the latest knowledge in PD and provides systematic methodology that illustrates the research process.
Furthermore, by screening through pertinent documentation an outcome has been assembled, which explicitly characterizes treadmill as a beneficial rehabilitation tool in gait therapy, particularly in the purpose of improving stride length and walking speed.
In conclusion, Pohjois-Haaga Palvelukeskus can find interest of utilizing the apparatus in the treatment of gait. Suggestion of outpatient sessions for early stage PD can offer favorable circumstances for the community, moreover for the person affected by this plurisymptomatic disease, which in this 21st century has no cure yet!
