The effects of different types of exercise on sleep quality and architecture in people with Parkinson's Disease
FY 2021-22
Summary
Most patients with Parkinson's Disease suffer from sleep problems that affect negatively their quality of life. This study will be the first to investigate the role of different types of exercise to promote changes in sleep quality and improve the structure of sleep in these patients. The study will provide important information to design better exercise- based treatments to improve sleep in these patients. This study will also be the first to investigate whether improvements in sleep are associated with improvements in cognitive and motor function and other symptoms experienced by people with PD that affect their quality of life. Gaining insight into these association could promote the development of new outcomes to assess the effectiveness of exercise programs with the goal of preserving cognitive and motor function and improve quality of life in people living with this disabling neurodegenerative disease.
