Manage-PD

Introducing the
MANAGE-PD tool

MANAGE-PD is a screening tool designed to support healthcare professionals in the identification of patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease (aPD) who may be uncontrolled on their current treatment regimen.1

Understanding MANAGE-PD with Prof. Angelo Antonini


Leading international neurologist Prof. Angelo Antonini from the Parkinson’s and Movement Disorders Unit at the Department of Neuroscience, University of Padua, Italy, discusses the development and validation of the Manage-PD tool, and how it helps to address the unmet needs in current aPD management. (19:30 mins)

MANAGE-PD builds on the Delphi consensus criteria* to create a clinically useful tool1


DELPHI STUDY

Consensus developed with leading experts in EU2

WEB SURVEY

MDSs from multiple countries identified key indicators of inadequate symptom control on orals3

COGNITIVE INTERVIEWS

“Deep-dive” consultation with 5 MDSs to enhance the tool4

*Taking oral levodopa ≥ 5 times daily, ≥ 2 hours of OFF time/day, presence of unpredictable fluctuations of motor symptoms, presence of troublesome dyskinesia, and limitations in ≥ 1 activity of daily living.2

MANAGE-PD allows you to:

Identify patients inadequately controlled on oral medications.

Determine which patients with aPD may be adequately controlled on their current treatment regimen or may require changes to their treatment regimen (including evaluation for device-aided therapy).

MANAGE-PD is a screening tool intended to be used by healthcare professionals (HCPs). This tool is aiming to support HCP’s decision-making for the timely management of Parkinson’s disease symptoms based on comprehensive evaluation of frequency and severity of the motor, non-motor and functional symptoms.

This questionnaire consists of two parts: Section 1 and Section 2. Symptoms should be assessed based on the previous 1 month. This tool does not give guidance concerning the type of device-aided therapy, but gives an indication that this type of therapy can be considered.

Manage-PD is a collaborative research and development effort between AbbVie Inc. Medical Affairs and Health Economics and Outcomes, the Parkinson’s Foundation and an international panel of movement disorder specialists.
