Short title used by the registry

Comparison of the effect of using of ""Tele_Rehabilitation"" and ""Traditional methods"" on Upper limb Sensory-Motor Function of people with idiopathic Parkinson

Original description

Intervention: Intervention 1: Intervention group- based on upper extremity game play activities with ""Tele-Rehabilitation"" in clinic: In this group, upper extremity exercise will be done with virtual reality technology in motor pattern needed for Parkinson diseases. Interventions will be done three days a week, for 24 sessions and everyone 1:15 minutes with presence of occupational therapist. Also occupational therapy traditional exercises include such as stretching, twisting, postural control and coordination will be done in each session. Intervention 2: Intervention group- Intervention group based on upper extremity game play activities with ""Tele-Rehabilitation"" at home: In this group, upper extremity exercise will be done with virtual reality technology in motor pattern needed for Parkinson diseases. Interventions will be done three days a week, for 24 sessions and everyone 1:15 minutes without presence of occupational therapist and also occupational therapy traditional exercises such as stretching, twisting, postural control and coordination will be done. Before starting these sessions patients will come to clinic for training and familiarizing with exercises and doing test before intervention. Intervention 3: Control group- Occupational therapy traditional exercise: This exercises will be done for one and half hour and include such as stretching, twisting, postural control and coordination. Primary outcome: Sensory_ Motor Function in Upper Limb. Timepoint: Before intervention, after intervention , follow up after 2 month of intervention. Method of measurement: Wrist Position Sense Test, Shouder Position Sense Test, Hand Active Sensation Test, Box-Block Test, Purde-Peg Board Test, Coin Rotation Test, Nine hole Peg Test, Grip Dynamometer. Secondary outcome: Quality of Life. Timepoint: Before intervention, after intervention, follow up 2 month after intervention. Method of measurement: ?Parkinson Disease Questionnaire.
