Worsening of Parkinson’s Disease After Termination of COVID-19 Quarantine Cannot Be Reversed Despite Resumption of Physiotherapy
In a retrospective analysis, we recently reported findings on the detrimental motor effects of interrupted physiotherapy following the COVID-19 pandemic in parkinsonian patients. Using an extended follow-up period, we investigated the beneficial effect of reinstated physiotherapy on patients’ diseas...

description | In a retrospective analysis, we recently reported findings on the detrimental motor effects of interrupted physiotherapy following the COVID-19 pandemic in parkinsonian patients. Using an extended follow-up period, we investigated the beneficial effect of reinstated physiotherapy on patients’ disease severity and reversal of interruption-induced motor deterioration. Compared to before the COVID-19 outbreak, we observed persistence of motor disease worsening despite full resumption of state-of-the-art physical therapy suggesting that motor deterioration after discontinuation of physical therapy could not be compensated for. Therefore, and considering possible future crises, establishing means to safeguard continuation of physical therapy and to foster remote provision of care should be major goals. |
