What this trial is about
Although TeleRehabilitation (TR) is widely accepted as an appropriate model for the provision of professional health services in the field of physiotherapy, with already established standards, guidelines and policies, there are still few studies in the literature on the use of TR as a rehabilitation tool in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD). Therefore, further studies on the efficacy of TR in the management of motor and non-motor symptoms of PD are needed. The study TEMPO aims at assessing the efficacy (in terms of autonomy in carrying out the activities of daily life) of a home TR program based on serious games in people with PD compared to conventional day-hospital treatment.
