About this study

To determine the effects of Lee Silverman Voice Treatment BIG on dynamic balance in Parkinson's patients

Read the detailed description

This study will be conducted to compare the effects of Lee Silverman Voice Treatment BIG and conventional physiotherapy on dynamic balance in patients of PD. Patients will be recruited according to inclusion criteria and data will be collected from Riphah rehabilitation center, National Hospital Lahore. Dynamic gait index will be used as data collection tool to test dynamic balance of patients. Patients will be allocated to intervention groups by randomization. After approval from ethical committee, data collection will be started and informed consent will be taken from all patients.

Being tested
Lee Silverman Voice Treatment BIG, conventional treatment

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dynamic Gait Index

    Dynamic gait index assesses postural stability, gait, and balance. It evaluates various gait- related tasks with challenging situations such as head turn, speed change, obstacles and stairs climbing.

    Measured: 9 months
