Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Superior bradykinesia improvement in the exercise group is expected through the method of assessing bradykinesia sub-scores of the motor UPDRS. The bradykinesia sub-scores of the upper limbs will be obtained by adding the items 23, 24 and 25 of the UPDRS motor exam; while a subset of bradykinesia in the lower limbs will be the sum of items 26, 27, 29 and 31 of the UPDRS motor exam;Superior improvement in Functional Physical Performance is expected in the exercise group that will be assessed using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), which combines results of gait speed, sitting and standing time and balance tests

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Superior benefit of parkinsonian motor and non-motor symptoms in the exercise group is expected through the total score of the UPDRS in the exercise group with reduction in the score of the base measure to one week after the intervention;Higher quality of life benefit is expected through the PDQ-39 in the exercise group with reduction in the scores from baseline measure to one week after the intervention;Superior benefit of sleep quality is expected through the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (IQSP) in the exercise group with reduction in the scores from baseline measure for one week after the intervention;Superior benefit in daytime sleepiness is expected through the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESE) in the exercise group with a reduction in the score from baseline measure for one week after the intervention;Superior sleep benefit is expected using the Parkinson's Disease Sleep Rating Scale (PDSS) in the exercise group with increasement of scores from baseline to one week after the intervention;Superior benefit in behavioral sleep disorder is expected through the REM sleep disorders screening questionnaire - brazilian version (QRDCSR-BR) in the exercise group with reduction of score from the baseline measure compared to one week after the intervention;A higher benefit is expected in the rate of respiratory disorders in the exercise group, with a reduction in the score of the baseline measure compared to one week after the intervention;Superior benefit in the atony of the chin muscle in the REM sleep phase is expected through polysomnography with increasement from baseline measure for one week after the intervention;A higher benefit in sleep quality is expected through polysomnography in the exercise group with an increase in the deeper phases of sleep (N3 and REM), a decrease in the superficial phase (N1) from baseline measure to one week after the intervention;Superior benefit in sleep latency, total sleep time, frequency of awakening is expected through actigraph pa
