Summary

To comparative pain intensity, chest mobility, cough strength, muscle strength, physical activity levels and quality of life in Parkinson's patients with post-COVID-19 and without post-COVID-19 was aimed in current study. Knowledge in the literature regarding this topic is still obscure.

Detailed description

Acute worsening and long-term sequelae of motor and non-motor symptoms have also been described in Parkinson's patients during and after SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is also known as prolonged COVID. The effects of COVID-19 on pain, chest mobility, cough strength, muscle strength, physical activity levels and quality of life in Parkinson's patients are still unclear today. For this reason, in this study, it was aimed to comparatively investigate pain, chest mobility, cough strength, muscle strength, physical activity levels and quality of life in Parkinson's patients with COVID-19 and without COVID-19 and to show the relationships between these outcome measures.

Conditions

• COVID-19 Respiratory Infection
• Parkinson Disease

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Physical Evaluations of post-COVID-19 individuals	In this research, the data of Parkinson's patients who have had COVID-19 will be collected face to face. Chest mobility, cough strength, muscle strength, physical activity and quality of life will be evaluated in all Parkinson's patients. The data to be obtained through all these evaluations will be collected from at one time and in a time lasting maximum of about 1 hour. Step count tracking with pedometer will be done for 3 days for each individual.
OTHER	Physical Evaluations of non-post-COVID-19 individuals	In this research, the data of Parkinson's patients who have not had COVID-19 will be collected face to face. Chest mobility, cough strength, muscle strength, physical activity and quality of life will be evaluated in all Parkinson's patients. The data to be obtained through all these evaluations will be collected from at one time and in a time lasting maximum of about 1 hour. Step count tracking with pedometer will be done for 3 days for each individual.
