ScopeThe rapid transition to telehealth following the COVID-19 pandemic raised challenges for remote delivery of physical therapy. One challenge was identifying outcome measures for people with Parkinson Disease (PwP) that could safely be conducted via telehealth. This paper evaluates the feasibility of a telehealth physical therapy examination battery for PwP in early to middle stage of disease progression.MethodologyWe reviewed recommended outcome measures from the American Physical Therapy Association's Academy of Neurologic Physical Therapy (ANPT) Parkinson Evidence Database to Guide Effectiveness (EDGE) document and evaluated their appropriateness for remote administration. A clinical decision tree was created to streamline the examination process, incorporating elements of the ANPT movement analysis of tasks as a movement screen. The examination battery was then conducted on three PwP and evaluated for safety and feasibility.ConclusionThis physical therapy telehealth examination battery provides physical therapists with a method to conduct safe and efficient remote assessments for PwP.
