Quantification of Levodopa Induced Dyskinesia in Parkinson Disease: Developing Objective Measures of Levodopa Induced Dyskinesia (Study One)

US Department of Veterans Affairs·observational·Posted Apr 30, 2007·Updated Nov 26, 2014

In Brief

An observational study evaluating Levodopa (delivered intravenously) for Dyskinesias and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 36 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The ultimate goal of this proposal is to reduce dyskinesia in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients. Dyskinesias are abnormal movements, often caused by the standard treatment for PD symptoms, levodopa. In this study, we will test if biochemical devices are equal to the clinical rating system in measuring dyskinesias.
