Abstract

Introduction: PARKINSON DISEASE is the second most common neurodegenerative disease among the aging population. The aim of this study was to determine if 10-weeks of functional exercise training would result in improvements in FUNCTIONAL FITNESS and QUALITY OF LIFE of people with Parkinson's disease.Methods: Research methodology was experimental with pre-test, post-test and control group. A total of 20 men and 20 women with mild to moderate idiopathic PD, aged 55-75 were randomly divided into control and experimental groups. Before the training period the level and severity of disease, mental state, FUNCTIONAL FITNESS and QUALITY OF LIFE in all patients were assessed respectively by using UPDRS and H& Y, MMSE, FFT and PDQL questionnaire. Research data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and inferential (MANOVA, ANOVA, T-test). All operations and statistical analysis at significant level (P≤0.05) were performed using SPSS software version 18.Result: The results showed that there was no significant difference between patients in FUNCTIONAL FITNESS (P=0.99) and QUALITY OF LIFE (P=0.87) in pretest.While in the experimental group the pretest and posttest scores on FUNCTIONAL FITNESS (P=0.00) and QUALITY OF LIFE (P=0.01) were significantly different.Conclusion: These findings suggested the role of functional training in improving FUNCTIONAL FITNESS and QUALITY OF LIFE in patients with PARKINSON DISEASE. It would effects positively on individual's independence to perform daily living tasks and having a better life.
