Abstract
Background: Parkinson’s disease is considered predominantly a disorder of the basal ganglia. Their vastsystem of communication allows them to get involved with a variety of functions, including automatic andvoluntary motor control, procedural learning relating to routine behaviors, and emotional functions. Theassociation with other cortical areas ensures smoothly orchestrated movement control and motor behaviors.Method: Experimental Study i.e. Pre to post-test experimental study design with two groups. Conventionalsampling of 60 subjects diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease were randomly distributed in two groups i.e.group E and group C. Group C were given global exercise whereas group E were given exercise using WIIconsole. The outcome was assessed in terms of the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Unified Parkinson’s DiseaseRating Scale (UPDRS), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and Unipedal Stance Test (UST).The subject performed 14 individual 1-hour training sessions, twice a week for 7 weeks.Conclusion: Based on the statistical analysis, it is concluded that WII based motor and cognitive traininghave a good impact on Activity of daily living of patients with Parkinson’s disease. WII based trainingshowed slightly better improvement in the Experimental group.
