“…Evaluation of an individualized home-based OT intervention in which coaching was a core element, demonstrated effectiveness in increasing self-perceived performance and satisfaction in prioritized daily activities [59,60].…”

“…In a trial about homebased OT, the participating PwP, caregivers and therapists reported the benefits of actively involving the caregiver in the intervention [60]. Nevertheless, the trial showed a small positive effect on quality of life, but no effect on caregiver burden [59]. Finally, in the late stage of the disease or when the PwP is admitted to a nursing home, it is important to involve the nursing personnel in the treatment.…”

Current medical management is only partially effective in controlling the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. As part of comprehensive multidisciplinary care, physical therapy and occupational therapy aim to support people with Parkinson's disease in dealing with the consequences of their disease in daily activities. In this narrative review, we address the limitations that people with Parkinson's disease may encounter despite optimal medical management, and we clarify both the unique and shared approaches that physical therapists and occupational therapists can apply in treating these limitations.

“…In addition, the recommendation for rehabilitation has been maintained as there is growing evidence that rehabilitative therapies, physical, speech, and occupational, are effective in improving motor impairment, activities of daily living, and quality of life in PD throughout all stages. [20][21][22][23] There remains clear gaps in care in relation to rehabilitative referrals. 11 Finally, queries regarding medication were maintained as well, which is of great importance as the treatment regimens become increasingly complex.…”

“…Sturkenboom et al conducted a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of occupational therapy for PD. In this study, home-based, individualized occupational therapy led to an improvement in self-perceived performance in daily activities in PD patients vs. control therapy [79]. More recently, Monticone et al reported a randomized controlled trial that demonstrated a 25-point difference in MDS-UPDRS scores as well as quality of life in favor of inpatient multidisciplinary rehabilitation versus nursing care plus 'standard' physiotherapy (both groups received the same duration of PT intervention) [80].…”

a b s t r a c tThe success of levodopa and other classes of drugs have meant that most people with Parkinson's disease enjoy a good quality of life for many years. However, despite the availability of several drugs and formulations that can be used as monotherapy and in combination, there are a number of disease features that the current therapies are unable to address. The disease continues to progress despite treatment, patients suffer from a myriad of motor and non-motor symptoms, and a neuroprotective therapy is urgently required. To move forward with medical and surgical management, it is important to consider new insights that recent research offers and in this review we examine how a better understanding of the disease pathology and progression might improve and enrich our daily clinical practice. It is also timely to consider the service provision changes that will increasingly be needed to effectively manage the needs of the aging population.
