Abstract
In an effort to provide timely clinical input for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) in the face of increasing demand and resource limitation in our UK based service, we introduced remote management in place of clinic appointment, including the use of the Parkinson’s KinetiGraph (PKG™), a wrist-worn device that provides a continuous measure of movement. We evaluated our reporting methods and findings, the nature of unmet need we identified, our treatment recommendations and the degree of their implementation in our patients whose feedback guided our service developments. Our evaluation highlighted opportunities and challenges associated with incorporating digital data into care traditionally delivered via in-person contact.
