ABSTRACT
Objective:
To observe the effects of traditional Chinese exercise Wuqinxi on balance, walking and quality of life for patients with Parkinson's disease.Methods:
From December, 2018 to December, 2020, 62 inpatients with Parkinson's disease in the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Chinese Medicine were randomly divided into control group (n = 31) and observation group (n = 31). The control group received routine medicine and rehabilitation training, while the observation group received Wuqinxi in addition, for eight weeks. The trajectory length and ellipse area of the center of pressure in 30 seconds were measured with PRO-KIN before and after treatment, while they were assessed with Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed 'Up and Go' Test (TUGT) and Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Scale-39 (PDQ-39).Results:
The trajectory length and ellipse area of the center of pressure, BBS score, TUGT time, and PDQ-39 score improved in both groups after treatment (t > 11.225, P < 0.001), and all improved more in the observation group than in the control group (t > 5.919, P < 0.001).Conclusions:
Wuqinxi training is effective on balance, walking and quality of life for patients with Parkinson's disease.
