Physiotherapy in Parkinson’s Disease: Building ParkinsonNet in Czechia

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Objective. We conducted a questionnaire survey to investigate the availability and quality of physiotherapy (PT) for Parkinson&apos;s disease (PD). Background. Despite evidence about the benefits of PT, there is no data regarding its use in Czechia. Methods. Questionnaires were sent to 368 PD patients seen in a single movement disorders centre within two years (inclusion criteria: idiopathic PD, Hoehn and Yahr stage &lt;5, and residence in Prague) and to 211 physical therapists (PTs) registered in Prague. The patient questionnaire evaluated limitations in 6 core areas and in activities of daily living and inquired about experience with PT. The PTs questionnaire evaluated knowledge about PD, number of PD patients treated yearly, and details of therapy. Results. Questionnaires were returned by 248 patients and 157 PTs. PT was prescribed to 70/248 patients. The effects were satisfactory in 79% and lasted &gt;3 months in 60/64. About half of the PTs have no experience with PD patients, 26% reported &lt;3, and 5% see &gt;10 yearly. The most widely used techniques were neurodevelopmental treatments. Conclusion. Present PD healthcare model in Czechia is suboptimal (low PT prescription, non-evidence-based PT). Implementation of European PT Guidelines for PD and the introduction of an efficient model of care are needed.
