“…4 PD is caused by a critical loss of dopamine in the forebrain, which results in typical cardinal motor symptoms such as tremor, postural instability, muscular rigidity, and bradykinesia/hypokinesia. 5 In addition, common nonmotor symptoms such as autonomic dysfunctions, sleep disturbances, and olfactory symptoms are critical factors that degrade the quality of life (QoL) of PD patients 6 and make the pathology severely disabling, both physically and socially. 7,8 The long-term development of the disease, expression of symptomatic complications (e.g., motor fluctuations) during specific times of day, long waiting lists, and traveling costs (particularly for people who live in rural areas) are just a few reasons that support the need to move Parkinson's care into the home and to develop new care models.…”
