ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Performing dual task for neurological patients is complex and it can be influenced by the localization of the neurological lesion. OBJECTIVE: Comparing the impact of dual task on gait in patients with Parkinson's disease, stroke and ataxia. METHOD: Subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) in initial phase, stroke and ataxia, with independent gait, were evaluated while doing simple gait, with cognitive, motor and cognitive-motor gait demand, assessing average speed and number of steps. RESULTS: Ataxia and stroke patients, compared with PD, showed an increase in the number of steps and decrease the average speed on the march with cognitive demand. Subjects with PD performed better on tasks when compared to others. CONCLUSION: In this study the impact of dual task was lower in Parkinson's disease patients. .


INTRODUÇÃO: A realização de dupla tarefa para pacientes neurológicos é considerada complexa e pode ser determinada pela topografia da lesão neurológica. OBJETIVO: Comparar o impacto da dupla tarefa na marcha de pacientes com Doença de Parkinson em fase inicial (DP), Acidente Vascular Cerebral(AVC) e Ataxia. MÉTODO: Sujeitos com DP em fase inicial, AVC e Ataxia cerebelar, com marcha independente, foram avaliados realizando marcha simples, com demanda cognitiva, com demanda motora e com demanda cognitivo-motora, mensurando-se velocidade média e número de passos. RESULTADOS: Os atáxicos e AVE comparados com os DP, apresentaram aumento do número de passos e diminuição da velocidade média na marcha com demanda cognitiva. Os sujeitos com DP apresentaram melhor desempenho nas tarefas comparados aos demais. CONCLUSÃO: O impacto da dupla tarefa apresentou-se menor nos pacientes com DP. .
