People with Parkinson’s disease (PD) manipulate clothing as part of their daily life. To understand how deteriorating motor skills affect the performance of dressing/undressing activities, this study investigated performance in handling clothing fastening. Participants were distributed into two groups: older adults with PD and neurologically matched healthy individuals (control group). Coordination and usability were evaluated. The PD group demonstrated worse performance than the control group in usability for types of buttons, and this was affected more intensely by small compared with large fasteners. This study demonstrated the need for increased awareness by clothing companies to develop products that can promote independence.

手动协调对帕金森氏病患者服装扣件可用性的影响

帕金森氏病(PD)的人们在日常生活中会穿衣服。为了了解运动技能的下降如何影响着装/脱衣服活动的性能,本研究调查了处理衣服扣紧的性能。参与者分为两组:患有PD的老年人和神经系统匹配的健康个体(对照组)。评估了协调性和可用性。PD组在纽扣类型的可用性方面显示出比对照组更差的性能,并且与大型紧固​​件相比,PD组受到的影响更大。这项研究表明,服装公司需要提高对开发可促进独立性的产品的认识。
