Feasibility of a Community-Based Multimodal Exercise Programme in Parkinson's Disease

Feasibility and Preliminary Effectiveness of an Individualised Multimodal Group-Based Exercise Programme for People With Parkinson's Disease: A Non-Randomized Feasibility Study

Sponsor

Universidad Rey Juan Carlos

Enrollment

64 participants

Start Date

Sep 8, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

PARKINSON DISEASE (Disorder)

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a multimodal, group-based but individualised therapeutic exercise programme for people with Parkinson's disease delivered within a real-world community-based patient association setting. The primary objective is to assess the feasibility of implementing the programme, including recruitment, consent, adherence, intervention completion, acceptability, perceived exertion and safety. Secondary objectives are to obtain preliminary comparative information regarding the effects of the intervention on motor and non-motor symptoms, physical fitness, pain-related outcomes and exercise-induced hypoalgesia. This is a non-randomized sequential feasibility study including an intervention group participating in a 12-week multimodal exercise programme and a matched non-exercise control group maintaining usual activities. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, post-intervention and 6-month follow-up.
