Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to examine the QUALITY OF LIFE in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) using a PARKINSON'S DISEASE Questionnaire (PDQ-39) as a measure.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 200 consecutive patients with PD who referred to Tehran University of Medical Sciences Hospitals were enrolled. The PDQ-39 was used for evaluation. Statistical tests like ANOVA, t-test and Spearman rank correlations were used to assess the relationship between duration and clinical stage of disease and the QUALITY OF LIFE.Results: The mean age of the patients was 57.32 years (10.5 SD). 135 (67.5%) were male and 65 (32.5%) female. Most of the patients (46.5%) were in mild stage. The results showed total effect of PD on patient’s QUALITY OF LIFE, on dimensions that measured by PDQ-39. The mean of Parkinson’s disease summary index (PDSI) was 35.17±15.43.Also severity (p=0.008) and duration (p=0.0001) of disease had a significant effect on QUALITY OF LIFE. QUALITY OF LIFE deteriorated significantly with increasing diseaseConclusion: Paying attention to other dimensions of QUALITY OF LIFE than clinical symptoms is suggested to improve health related QUALITY OF LIFE in patients with PARKINSON'S DISEASE.
