Sažetak
A 71-year-old patient was referred for rehabilitation in an advanced stage of parkinsonism. The patient presented with a slow gait, postural instability, bradykinesia, slightly increased upper limb tone, discrete tremor of the right hand, hypomimia and hypophonia. The multidisciplinary rehabilitation team consisted of a physiatrist, a neurologist, an otorhinolaryngologist, a speech-language pathologist, an occupational therapist, a physiotherapist and a medical technician. An individualized rehabilitation plan included multimodal physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. Standardized tests were used to evaluate the effects of rehabilitation after completion of rehabilitation and after three months to determine the effectiveness of the rehabilitation procedures.
