ABSTRACT
The Ability for Basic Movement Scale (ABMS) II has been introduced recently in some institutions for assessment of motor function in hemiparesis patients. This scale can estimate 5 important basic movements (turn over from supine position, sit up, remain sitting, stand up and remain standing). However, this scale has not been used in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The purpose of this study was to determine the association among ABMS II, lower leg muscle strength, activity of daily living (ADL) and neurological deterioration in PD patients. Forty-nine patients with PD were studied (mean age at evaluation 73.8 ± 15.9 years; time between onset and evaluation 33.8 ± 44.2 months, ± standard deviation). All patients underwent assessments with ABMS II, Barthel index (BI), lower limb muscle strength and Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part 3. ABMS II correlated significantly with UPDRS Part 3 and BI, and moderately with lower leg muscle strength. There was no correlation between UPDRS Part 3 and lower leg muscle strength. The study demonstrated that ABMS II score was associated significantly with neurological deterioration, ADL and lower leg muscle strength in patients with PD. We advocate the use of ABMS II by physical therapist for the assessment of PD patients.
