Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the value of Baduanjin combined with balance pad exercise in improving the balance ability and motor function of elderly Parkinsonundefineds patients.
MethodsTotally 120 elderly patients with Parkinsonundefineds disease admitted in our hospital from March 2017 to March 2018 were divided into two groups according to different exercise methods: the balance pad training group (60 cases) and the Baduanjin combined balance pad group (60 cases). After 2 months of continuous exercise, Fugl-Meyer lower limb motor function scale and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) were used to evaluate the recovery of lower limb motor ability and the changes of somatic balance control. Before training and 2 months after training, Parkinsonundefineds Scale (UPDRS) was used to evaluate the motor impairment of the patients.
ResultsThere were no significant differences between the two groups in the Fugl-Meyer score, BBS score, 6mWD and UPDRS scores before training (P>0.05). After 2 months of training, the BBS score of the observation group was (45.5±4.0) points and Fugl-Meyer score. (25.5±3.2) points and 6mWD scores (362.2±44.9) points, the control group was (42.3±3.8) points, (22.7±3.6) points, (337.3±51.0) points, the difference was statistically significant (t=4.493, 4.503, 2.839, P<0.05). After 2 months of training, the UPDRSII and III scores of the observation group were (11.8±3.0) points and (15.8±1.9) points, respectively, which were significantly better than the control group (14.7±2.6) points, (17.2 ± 1.4) points, the difference was statistically significant (t=5.658, 4.595, P<0.05).; the observation group patients had a fall rate of 16.67% (10/60), no fracture cases, the control group was 41.67% (25/60), 6.67% (4/60), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=9.076,-, P<0.05).
ConclusionBazuanjin combined with balance pad training can significantly improve lower limb motor function, restore gait, improve body balance control and improve quality of life in elderly patients with Parkinsonundefineds disease.
