Parkinson's disease (PD) not only affects movement but also causes non-motor symptoms like fatigue and confusion, which can change throughout the day. The Non-Motor Fluctuation Assessment (NoMoFA) Questionnaire helps identify these changes. This study will translate and test the NoMoFA in Italian, making sure it works well for Italian-speaking patients.
Study Details:
- Duration: 6 months, involving 200 patients.
- Visits: Regular follow-up visits are required to complete the questionnaire.
- Activities: Patients answer questions about their non-motor symptoms and retake the test after 14 days to check consistency.
The study is important for improving the quality of life for Italian PD patients by accurately assessing non-motor symptoms. Participants must be Italian speakers, have stable medication, and show symptom changes. They cannot have other types of Parkinson's or be under legal protection.
