Purpose: To determine if there is a correlation between functional balance and the stage of Parkinson’s disease. Methods: We selected 13 patients diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease who had the severity of the pathology classified according to the Hoehn and Yahr Scale (modified), used as selection and evaluation criteria. Subsequently, through a questionnaire, personal and clinical information were collected. Afterwards the Tinetti test and the Timed Up and Go test were applied to define the conditions of balance and gait. For the analysis of the categorical variables, the G (Adherence) tests and the Spearman correlation test were used(p≤0,05). Results: In Tinetti’s test we determined the presence of 6 patients (46.2%) with a high risk of falls. The TUG indicated that 6 patients (46.2%) had a high degree of functional impairment. The Hoehn and Yahr Scale (modified) ranked individuals in mild to moderate stages. The correlations between the tests (r = -0.8, p = 0.0004) and between Timed Up and Go and Hoehn and Yahr Scale (modified) (r = 0.8, p = 0.0001) and Tinetti’s test and the same scale (r = -0.8; p = 0.0006) demonstrated strong correlation and statistical significance. Conclusion: The functional balance evaluation instruments used correlate with the Hoehn and Yahr Scale (modified) helping to determine the severity of Parkinson’s disease.
