CHARACTERISTICS OF ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING IN OLDER PATIENTS WITH PARKINSON’S DISEASE
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: To evaluate activities daily living and their relationship with disease duration and stage in older patients with Parkinson's disease. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study of 190 Parkinson's patients aged ≥ 60 years. Stage of Parkinson's disease was classified according to Hoehn and Yahr scale. Daily functional activities were assessed using the ADL and IADL scales. Results: The rates of ADL and IADL impairment were 51.1% and 61.1%, respectively. There was a statistically significant association between ADL/IADL impairment and Parkinson's stage 3-5 and Parkinson's disease duration ≥ 6 years (p < 0.05). The mean Parkinson's disease stage and disease duration in the group of patients with ADL/IADL impairment were statistically higher than in the group of patients independent of ADL/IADL (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The rate of decline in ADL and IADL in older Parkinson's patients is quite high. There were associations between the severity of Parkinson's disease and the duration of Parkinson's disease with decline in ADL and IADL.
