Parkinson's disease is a common neurodegenerative disorder, affecting over 100,000 Canadians. With advances in medical and surgical treatments, clients are living longer and fuller lives. However, as the disease progresses those with Parkinson's continue to face a variety of deficits in their occupational performance. Although this is the domain of occupational therapists, very little is described in the occupational therapy literature related to Parkinson's. This article addresses this void by describing these deficits and current measurement tools that can be used to evaluate the impact on people living with Parkinson's disease. Although several tools are cited, three tools are recommended for an occupational therapy evaluation of individuals with Parkinson's disease: the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale and the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire.
帕金森病是一种常见的神经退行性疾病，影响着超过10万名加拿大人。随着医学和外科治疗的进步，患者的寿命更长，生活更充实。然而，随着疾病的进展，帕金森病患者在职业表现方面仍然面临各种缺陷。虽然这是职业治疗师的领域，但职业治疗文献中关于帕金森病的描述却很少。本文通过描述这些缺陷以及可用于评估帕金森病患者所受影响的当前测量工具来填补这一空白。虽然引用了几种工具，但推荐三种工具用于对帕金森病患者进行职业治疗评估：加拿大职业表现测量量表、统一帕金森病评定量表和帕金森病问卷。
