Brief Summary

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

A pilot experiment interventional study is proposed in order to set up multidisciplinary team for Parkinson's patients at home. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of this specialized Parkinson's team (ESPark) intervention a on the quality of life of patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease

Detailed Description

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

Parkinson's disease (PD) and related disorders are the second most common cause of motor disability in the elderly after stroke. Progressively, the disability impacts the activities of daily living and social life of Parkinson's patients with a major impact on their quality of life. The diversity and complexity of the needs of parkinsonian patients and their caregivers justify a specific multidisciplinary approach. Several studies have evaluated the effectiveness of the intervention of such teams on the maintenance of activities of daily living and quality of life of Parkinson's patients with contradictory results. In France, the experience of specialized Alzheimer teams (ESA) based on the same concept seems to have brought positive results on autonomy and resocialization. Based on the positive experience of ESA intervention in Alzheimer's disease and in view of the data in the literature on Parkinson's disease, we would like to develop the same type of care with teams adapted to the problems of Parkinson's disease patients, which we could call ESParks, and to evaluate the effectiveness of such teams in the context of support for Parkinson's patients.

ESPark Intervention

Under medical prescription and in addition to medical and physiotherapy care, the ESPark will intervene in an ecological way with Parkinson's patients in order to rehabilitate them, maintain their autonomy in their daily life and their social life with the aim of improving the quality of life of the patient and his main caregiver. Beyond a rehabilitative intervention in the home, the ESPark's mission would also be to optimize the patient's living environment and possibly help with the implementation of the necessary aids in the continuity of medical care.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

ESPark Intervention

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

The treatment will include 15 sessions (1 session per week). An initial assessment will be carried out during the first session in order to determine the objectives and the personalized follow-up.
