4 Patient Scenario Patient is a 72- year old male who was diagnosed with PD 12 years ago. He has recently experienced increasing severity of symptoms and is referred to outpatient physical therapy and a HEP. Prior Medical History Patient s prior medical history received from attending/referring physician is unremarkable except for hypertension, which is being treated with Metoprolol. Physician remarks include patient is currently diagnosed at Stage III on the Hoehn and Yahr Classification of Disability. Subjective He resides in an independent living facility with his wife.

Patient states his current medications are Sinemet and Mirapex. He reports he experiences freezing episodes when his medications wear off. As a result, he and his wife carefully plan outings around peak medication times. Objective ROM: PROM is WNL to all four extremities MMT: BUE: WNL BLE 3/5 throughout all ranges, except bilateral ankle dorsiflexors which is 2/5 Vital Signs seated: RHR = 64bpm, radial pulse site BP = 125/80 O2 saturation = 97% on room air -4-
5 Assessment Stooped posture, rounded shoulders, thoracic kyphosis Motor: Hesitation on initiation of movement Ambulates without an A.D. and demonstrates a festinating gait Demonstrates decreased arm swing and decreased reciprocal trunk movements Presents with pill-rolling tremor at rest MIN A x 1 person with bed mobility Requires MIN A x 1 person for sit/supine, supine/sit transfer Requires MIN A x 1 person for sit/stand, stand/sit transfer Static/Dynamic Sitting Balance: Good Static/Dynamic Standing Balance: Fair Tone: Demonstrates trunk rigidity Tinetti Balance Test: 17/28 Functional Reach Test: 6 inches Berg Balance Test: 38/56 Demonstrates slow reactions to loss of balance Mental status is Alert and Oriented x 3 Speech: Normal Sensation: Slightly decreased proprioception in BLE Plan 1. Gait training 2. Therapeutic exercise 3. Balance activities 4. Transfer activities 5. Educate patient and spouse on safety awareness 6. Educate patient and spouse on self-management skills (good posture, daily walking, benefits of sustained activity) 7. Patient will be seen for outpatient services, 3x week for 4 weeks STG: Increase MMT for bilateral ankle dorsiflexion to 3/5 STG: Increase BLE MMT to 3+/5 throughout all ranges STG: Increase static/dynamic standing balance to Fair+ STG: Increase arm swing and reciprocal trunk movements during gait and reduce festinating gait STG: Decrease trunk rigidity STG: Increase all bed mobility skills to SBA STG: Increase all functional transfers to SBA STG: Supervised with HEP STG: Educate patient and spouse on self-management skills -5-
6 STG: Increase Functional Reach Test score by 1 inch STG: Berg Balance Test score to 44/56 LTG: Increase BLE MMT to 4/5 LTG: Increase MMT for bilateral ankle dorsiflexion to 4/5 LTG: Increase arm swing and reciprocal trunk movements to decrease festinating gait LTG: Increase Functional Reach Test by 2 inches LTG: Berg Balance Test score to 50/56 LTG: Will be IND for all functional transfers and bed mobility skills LTG: IND with HEP Precautions Fall risk Patient fatigues easily Please answer the following questions regarding this patient: 1. Formulate two treatment interventions you would use with this patient on his first day of physical therapy. Please provide a detailed description. 2. Over the next week, what areas would you focus on to achieve STGs? What activities would you choose for this patient over the next week of therapy? Provide a detailed rationale for your answer. 3. Design a HEP for this patient. You have been the primary PTA treating this patient. Towards the end of Week 2, the patient presents at the outpatient facility with a decline in gait and transfer abilities. His wife states the patient has been overdoing it a bit as they have family visiting, which has resulted in frequent bouts of moderate fatigue. Patient and patient s wife report these bouts of fatigue occur as patient s medication begins to wear off. 4. A. At this point, what would you discuss with the patient and the patient s spouse. Would you report these findings to the supervising therapist? What would you report and recommend to the supervising therapist? Please provide a detailed explanation for your answer. B.

He has achieved the following LTGs: -6-
7 BLE MMT 4/5 (expect ankle dorsiflexion) Increased Functional Reach Test by 2 inches Berg Balance Test score 50/56 He is IND for bed mobility skills MMT for bilateral ankle dorsiflexion remains 3/5 He continues to present with decreased arm swing and reciprocal trunk movement during gait He continues to present with a festinating gait unless cued to correct self Dynamic/Static standing balance is Fair+ He is supervised for all functional transfers. He is supervised with the HEP 5. Based on this information, is this a safe discharge from outpatient therapy services? Why or why not? What recommendations would you provide to the supervising therapist? Provide a rationale for your answer. You have discussed this case with the supervising therapist who asks you to complete a home assessment. 6. Use the information previously provided by Dr. Mills to complete this home assessment.
