Effects of an Aquatic Physical Exercise Program on Ventilatory Parameters in People with Parkinson’s Disease
Problems in the respiratory system are the main cause of death in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Ventilatory limitations can also be part of a vicious cycle involving physical-functional limitations (e.g., walking difficulties) and the patients’ perception of fatigue. The objective of this study was to a...

description | Problems in the respiratory system are the main cause of death in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Ventilatory limitations can also be part of a vicious cycle involving physical-functional limitations (e.g., walking difficulties) and the patients’ perception of fatigue. The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of an aquatic physical exercise intervention program on ventilatory parameters, perception of fatigue, and gait capacity in participants with PD. This quasi-experimental study had a single group with repeated measures in four assessments, proposing an aquatic physical exercise intervention program. The inclusion criteria encompassed being in levels 1 to 4 on the Hoehn and Yahr scale and having a medical certificate for the activities. Assessments took place at 3-month intervals between them—the first period was the control, the second following the intervention, and the third period was the follow-up. The intervention had 25 biweekly sessions over 3 months. A total of 13 people (71.3 ± 5.61 years old) participated in the intervention, without significant differences in the control period. Between the intervention assessments, they had statistically significant differences in MIP, MEP, FVC, Tiffeneau index, MVV, and fatigue. The study demonstrated that the aquatic physical exercise intervention was effective for ventilatory outcomes and fatigue in people with PD. |
