About this study
Official title: The Acute Effect of Lumbo-sacral Mobilization on Functional Activities, Balance and Gait in Patients With Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease including resting tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity and postural instability. In addition, postural disorders, motor freezing, gait disturbances, decreased arm swing and axial rotation loss accompany the disease. There is an important relationship between axial rotation and turning, which is one of many activities in daily life. Parkinson's patients with loss of axial rotation have a difficulty gait, daily living activities and is associated with falls.
Classical physiotherapy methods for Parkinson's patients such as stretching, strengthening and posture exercises, balance, coordination and gait training, and different methods such as motor imagery, sensory stimuli and neurophysiological approaches can be used in the treatment of Parkinson's patients. Although there are applications that can increase axial rotation in physiotherapy programs, all programs may be able to focus adequately on the treatment of this symptom. In addition, according to the literature, the effects of all physiotherapy approaches emerge as a result of long-term training.

Mobilization techniques are applications that are included in physiotherapy programs and have a wide area of use. It is divided into three subtitles according to its severity and degree: Grade A (mobilization), grade B (mobilization) and grade C (manipulation).
Considering the effects of mobilization on muscle activation and balance, grade A and grade B mobilization applications are likely to increase the mobility of this area when applied on the lumbosacral region. Therefore, these practices can affect balance, gait and functional activities by regulating muscle tone (rigidity) and muscle activation and reducing axial symptoms in Parkinson's patients. Based on this information, the aim of our study is to investigate the acute effect of lumbosacral mobilization on balance, gait and functional activities in patients with Parkinson's disease.
Read the detailed description
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease defined by James Parkinson in 1817, resulting from the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the basal ganglion and substantia nigra. The four main motor signs of the disease are resting tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity and postural instability. In addition, postural disorders, motor freezing, gait disturbances, decreased arm swing and axial rotation loss accompany the disease. There is an important relationship between axial rotation and turning, which is one of many activities in daily life. Turning is a complex action that involves head and trunk rotation in the transverse plane. En bloc turning occurs with the decrease of inter-segment coordination in Parkinson's patients with loss of axial rotation, which refers to the almost simultaneous rotation of the head, trunk and pelvis. This problem affects a large percentage of people with Parkinson's disease, hinders daily living activities, is associated with falls, and has a significant impact on quality of life. Losses in axial rotation also can affect properties of gait such as speed and stride length.
Physiotherapy is effective in improving gait, balance and functional activities in Parkinson's patients. Classical physiotherapy methods such as stretching, strengthening and posture exercises, balance, coordination and gait training, and different methods such as motor imagery, sensory stimuli and neurophysiological approaches can be used in the treatment of Parkinson's patients. Although there are applications that can increase axial rotation in physiotherapy programs, all programs may be able to focus adequately on the treatment of this symptom. In addition, according to the literature, the effects of all physiotherapy approaches emerge as a result of long-term training.
Mobilization techniques are applications that are included in physiotherapy programs and have a wide area of use. It is divided into three subtitles according to its severity and degree: Grade A (mobilization), grade B (mobilization) and grade C (manipulation). Grade A (mobilization) is active, active-assisted or passive mobilization in the spinal joints within the painless range of motion. It is generally applied in the middle range in spinal joints. It is especially preferred in the treatment of acute, irritable spinal lesions. Grade B (mobilization) refers to mobilization in the form of continuous stretching at the end of the range of motion in the spinal joints. Grade C (manipulation) is a minimal amplitude high velocity passive pushing motion performed at the end of the joint range of motion.
Considering the effects of mobilization on muscle activation and balance, grade A and grade B mobilization applications are likely to increase the mobility of this area when applied on the lumbosacral region. Therefore, these practices can affect balance, gait and functional activities by regulating muscle tone (rigidity) and muscle activation and reducing axial symptoms in Parkinson's patients. Based on this information, the aim of our study is to investigate the acute effect of lumbosacral mobilization on balance, gait and functional activities in patients with Parkinson's disease.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Static Posturography Assesment (NeuroCom® Balance Master® Systems)
It measures stability while standing statically and dynamically. The device has a computerized force platform that measures the vertical forces (center of pressure) applied on the feet of the patients to measure the position of the center of gravity and postural control. Among the parameters evaluated by the device (stability limits test, modified sensory integration and clinical assessment of balance test, sit to stand test, straight walking (walk across), standing and fast walking test (step / There are tests such as quick turn)).
Measured: Baseline and immediately after mobilization
Dynamic Gait Index
It is a measurement tool that can be used to assess dynamic balance, gait, and risk for falls. Balance and walking pattern changes are scored during tasks such as changing gait speed, gait with vertical and horizontal head turns, pivot turn, step over obstacle, step around obstacles and climbing stairs. Each item of this 8-item scale is scored between 0 and 3. "0" indicates the lowest level of function and "3" the highest level of function.Total score is 24 for this scale and higher scores indicate higher level of function.
Measured: Baseline and immediately after mobilization
Modified Parkinson Activity Scale
It is used to determine the limitations in daily activities. It consists of three sub-sections: chair transfer, walking akinesia and bed mobility. There are 2 items for chair transfer, 6 items for walking akinesia and 6 items for bed mobility. The scoring of each item in the scale consisting of 14 items is between 0 (dependent)-4(normal). The total score range is between 0-56. Higher scores indicate higher level of function.
Measured: Baseline and immediately after mobilization
Secondary outcomes (1)
Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale
It is used to evaluate the symptoms of the disease and complications related to treatment. In this scale consisting of 4 parts, the scoring of each item is between 0-4 points. (I = Mental state, behavior and mental state, II = Activities of daily living, III = Motor examination, IV = Treatment complications). Increase in total score reflects increase in severity of symptoms
Measured: Baseline and immediately after mobilization
