Science Update: Rehabilitative Management of Non-motor Features in Parkinson Disease 0561

Friday, November 1, 2024
8:15 AM – 9:15 AM  
Location:  ROOM: Cortez A REGION: Tower Lobby Level >>> DIRECTIONS: From ACRM Registration desk, face the elephants and turn right.

The aim of this symposium is to present a scientific update of recent emerging evidence from meta-analytic and original research studies supporting the efficacy of home, community, and clinic based physical activity, exercise, and non-exercise movement interventions to improve the management of PD non-motor symptoms such as depressive symptomatology, anxiety, fatigue, apathy, cognition (attention/memory), sleep, and emotional self-control for people living with Parkinson’s disease (Abuoaf et al., 2023; Feller et al 2023; Folkerts et al 2023; Dauwan et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2022; Gross et al 2020; Gross et al 2022).
