Balance Confidence and Kinesiophobia in Parkinson's Disease

Sponsor: Beylikduzu State Hospital

Summary

31 patients aged 50-80 years diagnosed with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (Modified Hoehn-Yahr stages 1-3) and 31 healthy volunteers. At the start of the study, sociodemographic data for all participants will be recorded. To assess the mental and functional status of Parkinson's disease patients, the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) will be used. Balance confidence levels will be assessed using the Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale-6 (ABC-6), overall balance using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), fear of falling using the Falls Efficacy Scale (FES), and kinesiophobia levels using the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK).
