Abstract

Abstract Aims: This study examined the effects of group improvisational Dance Movement Therapy (DMT) on balance and cognition in people with Parkinson’s disease. Methods: Ten community-dwelling adults (mean age 66 years old) with mid to severe-stage Parkinson’s disease completed a 10-week DMT series with an emphasis on improvisational dance. Results: Following the dance intervention, we found a significant increase in total score on the BESTest measure of balance (t = 2.39, p = <0.0001, pretest = 79.1 ± 2.88% vs. post-test = 92.1 ± 2.18%) as well as a significant increase in the total score on the SCOPA-Cog measure of cognition (t = 2.575, p = 0.0299, pretest = 56.7 ± 3.73% vs. post-test = 62.2 ± 4.43%), particularly in the executive function task. Conclusion: Dance movement therapy with an emphasis on improvisational dance resulted in functional gains in balance and cognition for people with Parkinson’s disease and merits further exploration.

即兴舞蹈运动疗法对帕金森病患者平衡和认知的影响

摘要目的：本研究考察了团体即兴舞蹈运动疗法（DMT）对帕金森病患者平衡和认知的影响。方法：10名居住在社区的成年人（平均年龄66岁）岁）完成了为期10周的DMT系列，重点是即兴舞蹈。结果：在舞蹈干预之后，我们发现BESTest平衡测量的总分显著增加（t = 2.39，p = <0.0001，预测试 = 79.1 ± 2.88%与测试后相比 = 92.1 ± 2.18%）以及SCOPA Cog认知测量的总分显著增加（t = 2.575，p = 0.0299，预测试 = 56.7 ± 3.73%与测试后相比 = 62.2 ± 4.43%），特别是在执行职能任务方面。结论：以即兴舞蹈为重点的舞蹈运动疗法能使帕金森病患者在平衡和认知方面获得功能性的改善，值得进一步探索。

期刊介绍： This comprehensive journal is recognized for its useful balance of research and clinical practice articles. For more than twenty five years Physical & Occupational Therapy in Geriatrics has functioned as a forum for allied health professionals as well as others with a focus on rehabilitation of the geriatric client to share information, clinical experience, research, and therapeutic practice. Each issue focuses on current practice and emerging issues in the care of the older client, including rehabilitation and long-term care in institutional and community settings, and innovative programming; the entire range of problems experienced by the elderly; and the current skills needed for working with older clients.
