Protocol summary

Summary
The aim of this study is to compare the effect of receiving feedback from healthy subjects and patients with Parkinson's disease in group balance exercises on balance of patient with Parkinson's disease. In this clinical trial study, 40 patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease are randomly assigned to two groups: a group receiving feedback from healthy subjects and a group receiving feedback from patients with Parkinson's disease. The main inclusion criteria include having Parkinson's disease according to the neurologist diagnosis, having the disease's progression level of 1 to 3 as measured by Hoehn and Yahr Scale, an acceptable level of cognitive function, i.e. score of more than 21 on the Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE). Subjects are excluded if they do not cooperate during the test and exercises and not return for testing after the intervention. Twenty-four sessions of group banace exercises are performed with receiving feedback from healthy subjects and patients with Parkinson's disease (8 weeks, 3 sessions per week, 60 minutes per session). Functional balance and postural control are evaluated with clinical and laboratory tests before and after receiving exercises in both group.
