Influence of Community-based Group Exercise on Fall Risk in Parkinson's Disease
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Exercise for Parkinson Disease and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Parkinson's disease (PD) affects approximately 1 million people in the United States and causes significant fall risks. This study aims to develop a community-based exercise program that reduces falls in persons with PD. By combining individualized balance activities with group boxing training, the study seeks to identify modifiable risk factors, improve balance dysfunction, and reduce falls. The findings will inform clinical practice, offering a community-based exercise model to address the urgent need for effective fall prevention interventions in PD.
