Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study aimed at describing the effects of the COVID-19 social distancing on function, health and well-being of patients with Parkinson's disease or post-stroke, and test the association between the patient activation level and these effects.An anonymous survey was distributed through social media and patient associations.Community-living patients with Parkinson's disease or post-stroke were invited to answer the survey.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

People with chronic diseases like Parkinson's disease or post-stroke rely on routine medical and rehabilitative care to maintain daily function and health. These are important aspects of self-management. However, this was challenged by the social distancing due to COVID-19, which limited participation in regular routines.

The study objectives were: To (1) describe the effects of the COVID-19 social distancing on function, health and well-being of patients with Parkinson's disease or post-stroke, and (2) test the association between the patient activation level and these effects.

Community-living patients with Parkinson's disease or post-stroke were invited to answer an anonymous survey through social media and patient associations. Part 1 included 27 multiple-choice questions regarding current status and changes in function, health, medical care and well-being. Part 2 consisted of the Patient Activation Measure, describing people's knowledge, skill, and confidence in managing their own health.
