Overview

Parkinson's patients have postural disorders. These disorders are frequent in Martinique. Physiotherapeutic rehabilitation is essential because these disorders are generally non dopa-sensitive.

Description

Postural disorders are very common in Martinique, in patients often having an atypical form of the Parkinson's disease. Physiotherapy rehabilitation is essential because these disorders are generally non-dopa-sensitive. Isokinetic muscle strength may reduce postural disorder in Parkinson's disease.

Isokinetic device rehabilitation promotes maximum muscular contraction at constant speed; the resistance of the machine continuously adapting to the force developed by the subject. As the spinal muscle strength gain is superior to conventional post-rehabilitation motor function, the improvement in postural instability should be greater than that achieved with conventional rehabilitation. A better postural support should thus result in a decrease in the risk of falling and an improvement in the quality of walking.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
