Study start date: February 1, 2025
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.This study focuses on Parkinson's disease, a common condition that affects the nervous system, causing issues with movement, balance, and coordination. The goal is to investigate the reliability and validity of a specific test called the Standing Up From Supine Test in individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. This test is designed to measure the time it takes for a person to transition from a lying down position to standing up, a basic daily activity that can become challenging with Parkinson's. The study aims to provide a tool that can be used in both the treatment and evaluation of Parkinson's patients, potentially improving their quality of life and addressing some of the mobility issues associated with the disease. Participants in this study will be referred from SANKO University Sani Konukoğlu Application and Research Hospital's Neurology Polyclinic. After gathering basic demographic information, they will undergo the Standing Up From Supine Test, among other assessments. The test involves lying down on a soft mat in a quiet room and standing up when asked. The time taken to complete this task will be recorded. Other tests will evaluate balance, fear of falling, upper extremity functionality, muscle strength, and quality of life. These tests include the Activity-specific balance safety scale, the Berg Balance Scale, the Timed Get Up and Walk test, the 9-hole peg test, manual muscle testing, and the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire. The evaluations will be conducted by Dr. Hakan Polat and repeated by a different physiotherapist after a week.
