J Eval Clin Pract 2024; 30:873-886. [PMID: 38752460 DOI: 10.1111/jep.13999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024]
Abstract
RATIONALE Rehabilitation has the potential to significantly improve the lives of people and, most importantly, for persons with Parkinson's disease (PD). Although numerous studies have reported the benefits of rehabilitation for persons with PD (PwPD), these services are still limited and underutilized even when patients exhibit problems that require rehabilitation. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES This review aims to describe the (a) indication for referral for rehabilitation services, (b) patterns of referral for rehabilitation and (c) factors that facilitate or hinder the utilization and delivery of rehabilitation services among PwPD. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted across selected databases, African Journals Online, EBSCOhost (CINAHL, Africa-wide), PubMed, SCOPUS and Web of Science. Studies published in English from January 2002 until December 2022 were applied as limiters. Reference and grey data sources tracking were also conducted. Two reviewers conducted the study selection, screening of titles, abstracts and full text and data charting. A descriptive analysis was performed. Findings were narratively presented and illustrated with tables, diagrams and descriptive formats as appropriate. RESULTS Twelve studies were included in the review; however, none were from Africa. Impairments and activity limitations were the key functioning problems indicated for rehabilitation. Age, gender, income, race, disease stage, specific functioning problems, quality of life and care by a neurologist were the main predictors for referral to rehabilitation. Physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy were the most utilized rehabilitation services and were sometimes utilized together. The rate of rehabilitation service utilization among PwPD ranged from 0.9% to 62.5%. Lack of referrals and limited rehabilitation units/professionals were the common barriers to rehabilitation service utilization. CONCLUSION Per the studies reviewed, utilization of rehabilitation services is generally low among PwPD. Lack of referral and nonavailability of professionals are cited as barriers to access. Adequate measures are needed to improve rehabilitation services for all PwPD.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this manuscript was twofold: to investigate how clinical voice and swallow questionnaires align with self-reports from speech/voice and swallow domains of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), and how decline in self-reported speech/voice measures predict decline in self-reported swallowing measures. METHODS This observational, preliminary cross-sectional study included 15 people diagnosed with Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease. Participants completed the Voice Related Quality of Life (V-RQOL), Sydney Swallow Questionnaire (SSQ), and cognitive screening (Montreal Cognitive Assessment; MoCA) to account for cognitive impairment during self-reported speech/voice and swallow measures. They also completed the speech/voice and swallow components of the UPDRS. RESULTS There were significant associations between the SSQ and UPDRS question 2.3 (chewing/swallowing) (P < 0.001), but not between UPDRS question 2.1 (speech/voice) and V-RQOL. However, the MoCA was significantly and directionally associated with V-RQOL scores (P = 0.01). Finally, the V-RQOL was significantly associated with SSQ scores in a multiple regression model (P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Speech/voice and swallow-related questions from the UPDRS may be viable initial screening tools to facilitate faster and earlier laryngeal function testing. Substantially more research should be undertaken to assess how well these UPDRS question domains are indicative of underlying speech/voice or swallow dysfunction.

Abstract
Caregiver burden is a term that refers to the adverse effect of caregiving on the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and financial well-being of the caregiver. Caregiver burden is associated with providing care to an individual with a chronic illness or disability, and the unique symptoms of Parkinson disease (PD) can amplify a patient's needs and reliance on others, leading to adverse outcomes for patients and their caregivers. In this scoping review of the literature from January 2017 through April 2022 that included 114 studies, we provide an updated, evidence-based summary of patient and caregiver-related factors that contribute to caregiver burden in PD. We also describe the impact of caregiver stress and burden on caregivers based on qualitative research studies and review recent interventions to mitigate burden. By providing clinical updates for practitioners, this review is designed to improve recognition of caregiver burden in the post-pandemic era and foster the development of targeted interventions to reduce caregiver burden in PD.

Abstract
Allied health therapies refer to a range of healthcare professionals, including physiotherapists, occupational and speech-language therapists, who aim to optimize daily function and quality of life in conjunction with medical care. In this narrative review of literature on allied health therapies in people with Parkinson's disease (PD), we focused on the diversity in healthcare access, state of the art, current challenges in the African continent, and proposed solutions and future perspectives. Despite the increasing prevalence and awareness of PD in Africa, numerous challenges persist in its management. These include resource limitations, geographical barriers, sociocultural beliefs, and economic constraints. Nevertheless, innovative solutions, including telerehabilitation and community-based rehabilitation, offer hope. Collaborative efforts within the continent and internationally have shown potential in bridging training and resource gaps. Significant strides can be made with tailored interventions, technological advancements, and multifaceted collaborations. This review offers practical insights for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and caregivers to navigate and optimize PD care in the African context.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder impacting everyday function and quality of life. Rehabilitation plays a crucial role in improving symptoms, function, and quality of life and reducing disability, particularly given the lack of disease-modifying agents and limitations of medications and surgical therapies. However, rehabilitative care is under-recognized and under-utilized in PD and often only utilized in later disease stages, despite research and guidelines demonstrating its positive effects. Currently, there is a lack of consensus regarding fundamental topics related to rehabilitative services in PD. OBJECTIVE The goal of the international Parkinson's Foundation Rehabilitation Medicine Task Force was to develop a consensus statement regarding the incorporation of rehabilitation in PD care. METHODS The Task Force, comprised of international multidisciplinary experts in PD and rehabilitation and people directly affected by PD, met virtually to discuss topics such as rehabilitative services, existing therapy guidelines and rehabilitation literature in PD, and gaps and needs. A systematic, interactive, and iterative process was used to develop consensus-based statements on core components of PD rehabilitation and discipline-specific interventions. RESULTS The expert-based consensus statement outlines key tenets of rehabilitative care including its multidisciplinary approach and discipline-specific guidance for occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech language pathology/therapy, and psychology/neuropsychology across all PD stages. CONCLUSIONS Rehabilitative interventions should be an essential component in the comprehensive treatment of PD, from diagnosis to advanced disease. Greater education and awareness of the benefits of rehabilitative services for people with PD and their care partners, and further evidence-based and scientific study are encouraged.

Abstract
Background Low adherence to non-pharmacological interventions can impact treatment effectiveness. Yet, there is limited information on adherence barriers and facilitators to non-pharmacological interventions in Parkinson's disease (PD). Objective 1) To examine the quality of adherence reporting and 2) to identify key determinants of adherence to PD non-pharmacological interventions. Methods A rapid evidence assessment was conducted, following PRISMA guidelines, that included controlled studies of exercise, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech-language therapy with explicit reporting of 'adherence' OR 'compliance', published in the last 15 years. Data extracted included: adherence rates, adherence outcomes, and factors associated with adherence. A collaborative thematic analysis was conducted to identify determinants of adherence. Results The search yielded 2,445 articles of which 114 met criteria for full screening with 45 studies meeting all inclusion criteria. High quality adherence data that aligned with the intervention goals were reported by 22.22%(N = 10) of studies, with the majority reporting attendance/attrition rates only 51.11%(N = 23). Four major themes (34 subthemes) emerged: disease and health, personal, program design, and system and environmental. Conclusions There has been limited progress in the quality of adherence reporting in PD non-pharmacological interventions over the last decade. Acknowledging this limitation, key determinants of adherence included: alignment with personal beliefs, attitudes, and expectations; the demands of the intervention and worsening disease symptoms and personal/time obligations; and accessibility and safety concerns. Program design elements found to facilitate adherence included: opportunities for social engagement and in-person offerings linked to higher levels of interventionist support, performative feedback, and social reinforcement.

Abstract
Motor and nonmotor symptoms occur in early Parkinson's disease (PD), or even in the prodromal stage. Many of these symptoms can be addressed by allied health therapies, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and psychological therapies. However, referrals to these services early in the disease are low. We provide a review summarizing the efficacy of proactive allied health interventions on motor and nonmotor symptoms and daily function in prodromal and early disease. We also highlight areas for additional research and provide recommendations to improve care for individuals with early PD within each discipline. We recognize the overlapping roles of the allied health disciplines and support integrated or transdisciplinary care beginning soon after diagnosis to help stem the tide in the progression of PD symptoms and disability.

Abstract
People with Parkinson's disease (PD) experience a range of progressive motor and non-motor symptoms, that negatively affect their daily functioning, social participation and quality of life. Allied health therapies have emerged as an effective treatment approach-complementary to pharmacological and neurosurgical treatments-which reduces the impact of PD in daily life. In this article, we propose criteria for what constitutes specialized allied health care for PD, and we review allied health research in PD in terms of meeting these criteria and its outcomes for monodisciplinary approaches as well as multi- or interdisciplinary allied health interventions. We focus on the three most studied allied health disciplines in PD: physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language therapy. Overall, the available evidence underscores the importance and potential benefits of specialized allied health care for people with PD. Our proposed criteria and recommendations for future research might help in further delineating specialized allied health care.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to identify potential barriers to speech pathology referral in ataxia, as well as potential factors influencing satisfaction with speech pathology and communicative participation. METHOD An online survey study included questions about participant demographics, referral and access to speech pathology, satisfaction with speech pathology, and communicative participation via the Communicative Participation Item Bank (CPIB). RESULTS We analysed 118 eligible responses from individuals with ataxia. Results from Bayesian regression models indicated that the overall referral rate to speech pathology was 64% for the respondents with a speech impairment, predicted by lower income, less education, and greater self-perceived speech severity. Additionally, sex, self-perceived speech severity, and length of speech impairment predicted more restricted communicative participation. For the respondents who were referred for speech pathology, overall satisfaction with speech pathology was neutral to high but most individuals reported little to no improvement in their speech. CONCLUSION Referral rate to speech pathology was low given that dysarthria and dysphagia are highly likely to occur in ataxia. Considerations should be made for perceived speech severity, sex, and length of speech impairment in evaluating communicative participation. Lastly, there is a vital need for evidence-based treatment for ataxic dysarthria.

Abstract
Background People living with Parkinson's disease (PD) have a high risk for falls. Objective To examine gaps in falls prevention targeting people with PD as part of the Task Force on Global Guidelines for Falls in Older Adults. Methods A Delphi consensus process was used to identify specific recommendations for falls in PD. The current narrative review was conducted as educational background with a view to identifying gaps in fall prevention. Results A recent Cochrane review recommended exercises and structured physical activities for PD; however, the types of exercises and activities to recommend and PD subgroups likely to benefit require further consideration. Freezing of gait, reduced gait speed, and a prior history of falls are risk factors for falls in PD and should be incorporated in assessments to identify fall risk and target interventions. Multimodal and multi-domain fall prevention interventions may be beneficial. With advanced or complex PD, balance and strength training should be administered under supervision. Medications, particularly cholinesterase inhibitors, show promise for falls prevention. Identifying how to engage people with PD, their families, and health professionals in falls education and implementation remains a challenge. Barriers to the prevention of falls occur at individual, environmental, policy, and health system levels. Conclusion Effective mitigation of fall risk requires specific targeting and strategies to reduce this debilitating and common problem in PD. While exercise is recommended, the types and modalities of exercise and how to combine them as interventions for different PD subgroups (cognitive impairment, freezing, advanced disease) need further study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the barriers to home exercise for patients with Parkinson's disease (PwPDs) and to provide guidelines for healthcare providers to build and implement home exercise strategies for PwPDs. DESIGN A qualitative descriptive method was used. Semistructured interviews were conducted and thematic analysis was employed. SETTING The study was conducted at the Department of Neurology at a grade 3 Class A general hospital in China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 24 participants were interviewed, including 10 PwPDs, 7 caregivers, 4 nurses, 1head nurse, and 2 Parkinson's clinicians. RESULTS Five themes were identified in this analysis. (1) Psychosomatic stress and low activity; (2) Lack of early rehabilitation authorisation; (3) Poor 'flow' state of home exercise; (4) iInaccessibility of continued service; (5) Sociocultural impact on family coping. CONCLUSION PwPDs, caregivers and specialised medical staff raised the challenges faced by patients' home exercises from different perspectives. We can improve services and integrate resources through the management of multi-disciplinary, early rehabilitation authorisation, exercise experience, continuous service mode, and family coping strategies under different cultures to gradually adjust the home exercise behaviour of PwPDs.

[PMID: 35873703 PMCID: PMC9300278 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1931468] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2021] [Revised: 04/07/2022] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Clinical practice guidelines establish that occupational therapy (OT) services are indicated for people with early Parkinson's disease (PD). However, OT is uncommon compared to other rehabilitation services. This study describes the development and evaluation of a proactive, consultative OT program for people with early PD as a part of an integrated care approach. Materials and Methods The program was developed by an occupational therapist adapting practice guidelines for people with early PD. Retrospective program evaluation occurred at an outpatient rehabilitation clinic. The consultative OT program for early PD includes a 90-minute evaluation with instruction in self-management techniques, individually tailored exercises, and follow-up recommendations. The program was evaluated with the RE-AIM framework. Postprogram semistructured interviews provided patient-reported program effectiveness and satisfaction. Results In 2018, 23 individuals used OT out of 77 people with early PD who attended the proactive rehabilitation program. Most individuals (n = 16, 69.6%) were within Hoehn and Yahr stages 1-2 and were seen within 3 years of PD diagnosis. Participants presented with deficits in hand strength (60.0 ± 23.4 pounds) and dexterity (right hand 30.0 ± 8.0 seconds) and reported complaints about basic and/or instrumental activities of daily living (n = 15, 65.2%). Semistructured interviews (n = 16) revealed that most individuals (75%) reported high satisfaction. Of the 10 who recalled a home exercise program, 60% reported continued adherence. Consultative OT was delivered with fidelity in 22/23 individuals (96%). After one year, only two occupational therapists at one clinic had adopted the program, and the program is maintained in the organization. Conclusion Occupational therapists reached people in the early stages of PD when a specific program was tailored to evaluate and target their specific needs. Motor activity deficits noted in individuals with early PD support future scaling and sustainability efforts of OT within this population. Quality improvement suggestions are discussed for future implementation and clinical trials.

Abstract
Communication difficulties are a ubiquitous symptom of Parkinson's disease and include changes to both motor speech and language systems. Communication challenges are a significant driver of lower quality of life. They are associated with decreased communication participation, social withdrawal, and increased risks for social isolation and stigmatization in persons with Parkinson's disease. Recent theoretical advances and experimental evidence underscore the intersection of cognition and motor processes in speech production and their impact on spoken language. This chapter overviews a growing evidence base demonstrating that cognitive impairments interact with motor changes in Parkinson's disease to negatively affect communication abilities in myriad ways, at all stages of the disease, both in the absence and presence of dementia. The chapter highlights common PD interventions (pharmacological, surgical, and non-pharmacological) and how cognitive influences on speech production outcomes are considered in each.

[PMID: 36743428 PMCID: PMC9879503 DOI: 10.12786/bn.2021.14.e12] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2021] [Revised: 07/11/2021] [Accepted: 07/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by typical motor symptoms such as resting tremor, bradykinesia, and rigidity, as well as non-motor manifestations, including psychiatric symptoms, autonomic dysfunction, and cognitive impairment. These symptoms induce a marked impact on functional independence in daily activities and quality of life in PD patients. Recent guidelines recommend adequate rehabilitation education and treatment from the early stages of PD, and rehabilitation has become part of standard care for PD. In Korea, the number of patients with PD has more than tripled over 15 years, from 39,265 in 2004 to 125,607 in 2019. However, the rehabilitation usage of PD patients has not changed remarkably, and it remains suboptimal in Korea compared to several developed countries, which have advanced and disseminated guidelines and implemented specialized care delivery systems for PD over the past 20 years. Additional efforts are warranted to provide adequate rehabilitation therapies for PD patients in Korea.
