PROFILE PD: profile of function and impairment level experience with Parkinson disease--clinimetric properties of a rating scale for physical therapist practice.
TLDR
The PROFILE PD is a reliable and valid scale that can be used to quantify alterations in body systems and activity of individuals in early and mid-stages of PD.Abstract:
Background and Purpose:Individuals with Parkinson disease (PD) experience a range of deficits of body systems and activities A clinical test is needed that is reliable, valid, applicable to physical therapist practice, and appropriate for use in early and mid-stages of the disease PROFILE PD is onread more
