Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is believed that the application of the progressive strengthening protocol will contribute to the improvement of the muscular strength reflected in the functional improvement of the Upper Limbs that can be observed in the following instruments: Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39), Test d’Evaluation des Membres Supérieurs de Personnes Âgées (TEMPA), 9-Hole Peg Test (9HPT) and Dynamometer Manual - Jamar®.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Correlate variables at post-intervention time: UPDRS, sessions II and III, PDQ-39, TEMPA, 9HPT and manual dynamometry
