Motor complications and quality of life in patients with parkinson disease in stage 3 and 4 by hoehn and yahr
Overview
Abstract:
Objectives: Describe the
characteristics and relationship between motor complications and quality of
life in patients with parkinsons stage 3 and 4 according to Hoehn and Yahr
(H&Y). Methods: Cros-sectional,
descriptive study. Results: 99 PD
patients (46 male/53 female) in stage 3 and 4 by Hoehn and Yahr (69.3% in stage
3), treated at National Geriatric Hospital from August 2019 to May 2020. The
average S&E-ADL and PD-SI scores of the study subjects were 52.63±13.16 and
50.64±14.71, respectively; The mean scores of "motor", "daily
activity", "cognition" and "body discomfort" were
higher in the group with motor complications compared with the other group of
patients (p<0.05). There was a difference in quality of life scores in
patients with “Dose failure”, “Unpredictable wearing-off”, “off-phase
dyskinesia”, “biphasic dyskinesia” and “morning dystonia” compared with
patients without the above complications. Conclusion:
Motor complications greatly affect the quality of life of parkinsonian
patients, especially the complication of “dose failure” “unpredictble
wearing-off”, “off-phase dyskinesia”, “biphasic dyskinesia” and “morning
dystonia”.
