Abstract

A multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach is increasingly recommended in Parkinson’s disease (PD) treatment guidelines, but no standard of care exists for such an approach, and the guidelines do not provide clarification on how it should be implemented. This paper reviews evidence of MDT interventions in people with PD and provides expert clinical perspectives for an MDT approach, with a focus on advanced PD and levodopa–carbidopa intestinal gel (carbidopa–levodopa enteral suspension in the USA). The key recommendations are to enable the best possible treatment of people with PD locally by facilitating a close structured collaboration of different health care professionals working in a fixed network structure; to refer people with PD to established MDT centers in a timely manner; to establish regular meetings for the MDT enabling interdisciplinary exchange and learning; to optimize individual treatment and carefully evaluate available treatment options; to ensure treatment decisions are agreed jointly between people with PD, their caregivers, family, and health care professional; and to include specialists outside of neurology from adjuvant medical departments as necessary when implementing advanced therapies.

<abstract>
<p>A multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach is increasingly recommended in Parkinson’s disease (PD) treatment guidelines, but no standard of care exists for such an approach, and the guidelines do not provide clarification on how it should be implemented. This paper reviews evidence of MDT interventions in people with PD and provides expert clinical perspectives for an MDT approach, with a focus on advanced PD and levodopa–carbidopa intestinal gel (carbidopa–levodopa enteral suspension in the USA). The key recommendations are to enable the best possible treatment of people with PD locally by facilitating a close structured collaboration of different health care professionals working in a fixed network structure; to refer people with PD to established MDT centers in a timely manner; to establish regular meetings for the MDT enabling interdisciplinary exchange and learning; to optimize individual treatment and carefully evaluate available treatment options; to ensure treatment decisions are agreed jointly between people with PD, their caregivers, family, and health care professional; and to include specialists outside of neurology from adjuvant medical departments as necessary when implementing advanced therapies.</p>

<title>Introduction</title>
<p>A multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach has been shown to improve the quality of life (QoL)
<xref rid="b1-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
<xref rid="b5-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
and motor function

,
<xref rid="b4-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
<xref rid="b8-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and QoL for their caregivers.
<xref rid="b9-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
<xref rid="b11-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
Although limited studies are available, it is clear that people with PD benefit from such an approach (
<xref ref-type="table" rid="t1-jmdh-10-013">Table 1</xref>
), and as such, it is increasingly recommended in PD treatment guidelines.
<xref rid="b12-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,
<xref rid="b13-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
Up to 20 different health care professionals may provide beneficial interventions,
<xref rid="b14-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
but no standard of care exists for an MDT approach, and the guidelines do not provide clarification on how it should be implemented. As a result, although the prevalence of PD increases with age to nearly 2% (1,903/100,000) in those over 80 years of age worldwide,
<xref rid="b15-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
many people with PD receive suboptimal management.</p>
<p>The lack of a clear definition of advanced PD
<xref rid="b16-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
creates a further challenge. Furthermore, people who have been identified as having advanced PD are often not referred for advanced therapies,
<xref rid="b17-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
which can improve their motor function and QoL.
<xref rid="b18-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
These therapies – deep brain stimulation (DBS),
<xref rid="b19-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
subcutaneous apomorphine pump,
<xref rid="b20-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>
and levodopa–carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG; carbidopa–levodopa enteral suspension in the USA),
<xref rid="b21-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
– require specialized MDTs to ensure successful implementation. However, experience in establishing and working within such specialized MDTs is limited.</p>
<p>This paper reviews the literature and shares the extensive relevant experiences of the authors to help address gaps in clinical practice and guidelines concerning MDT management of advanced PD, timely referral of people with PD for advanced therapies, and implementation of advanced therapies (with special attention to LCIG therapy).</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Literature search strategy and selection criteria</title>
<p>Studies were identified through a PubMed literature search using the following search terms: multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary/multispecialty AND Parkinson’s disease AND study. This yielded 90 hits – the abstracts were screened for suitability. Only studies investigating the impact of multidisciplinary care in people with PD were included. Reviews (systematic and other), nonrelevant articles, and studies in which only the protocol and study design were discussed were excluded from the results. The literature search was performed in July 2016.</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Who is in the MDT?</title>
<p>The MDT comprises up to 20 different collaborating health care professionals centered on the person with PD and their caregiver, to provide comprehensive care to meet as many of the patient’s health and other needs as possible (
<xref ref-type="table" rid="t2-jmdh-10-013">Table 2</xref>
).
<xref rid="b12-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,
<xref rid="b14-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
,
<xref rid="b22-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
The involvement of a PD nurse specialist (PDNS),
<xref rid="b12-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,
<xref rid="b14-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
,
<xref rid="b22-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
,
<xref rid="b23-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
to offer support at the individual level, education to the wider community, and training of clinical and nonclinical staff,
<xref rid="b24-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
complements the interventions of the rest of the team to improve the QoL of people with PD and their caregivers.
<xref rid="b25-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
</p>
<p>As PD progresses to advanced PD,
<xref rid="b26-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
device-aided advanced therapies become an option to improve motor function and QoL.
<xref rid="b18-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
At this stage, additional members of the MDT include neurosurgeons and gastroenterologists with a special interest and expertise in managing people with advanced PD indicated for DBS or LCIG, respectively.</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Roles and responsibilities within the MDT</title>
<p>The PD MDT composition and the roles/responsibilities of each member require clear definition so that they can work both individually and collaboratively to achieve a common set of treatment objectives. The involvement of different MDT members at any one time depends on the needs of the person with PD and their caregiver, and the stage of their disease. Effective interventions preserve the caregiver’s well-being, and allow people with PD to remain at home with appropriate assistance.
<xref rid="b9-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
</p>
<p>Ideally, various networks exist and interact within the MDT (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1-jmdh-10-013">Figure 1A</xref>
). In Denmark, for example:
<list list-type="order">

<p>A triangular network exists for day-to-day management between general community nurses, a key community nurse trained in PD who can answer most day-to-day questions, and a hospital-based PDNS.</p>

<p>The complex, but not complicated, multidisciplinary Glostrup model (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1-jmdh-10-013">Figure 1B</xref>
) depicts the interactions and networks between all members of the PD MDT with the person with PD, their caregiver, the MDS, and the PDNS at the center. A strong collaboration between hospital and community nurses is essential with this approach.</p>
<p>People with PD and their caregivers require clear information and education about their therapeutic options throughout the disease, including the possible advantages and disadvantages, to ensure that treatments are used appropriately to achieve the best possible QoL and motor function.

,
<xref rid="b27-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
The MDS and PDNS are experts in the provision of such information, and all newly diagnosed people with PD should be referred to a specialized MDT with a PDNS as soon as possible after diagnosis.
<xref rid="b17-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>

,
<xref rid="b27-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
The PDNS can then liaise with and involve the MDS and other members of the MDT as required.</p>
<p>The MDS and PDNS aim to provide seamless care and information and provide newly diagnosed people with PD with the opportunity to talk about and discuss the diagnosis in more detail. They can help them come to terms with the diagnosis, how it might affect them, and how they can manage it.
<xref rid="b24-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
</p>
<p>Caregivers also play an important role in the team of individuals supporting people with PD. While offering assistance with activities of daily living, they are also involved with the management of PD-related tasks (appointments, medication) and treatment decisions. At all stages of the disease, treatment decisions should be made jointly between the person with PD, their caregiver, family, and health care practitioners.
<xref rid="b28-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
Greater involvement in treatment decisions leads to significantly greater satisfaction and distress relief in people with PD.
<xref rid="b29-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
Furthermore, engaging people with PD and their caregivers to understand PD and the therapies available could lead to improved adherence to therapy, as has been demonstrated in diabetes patients.
<xref rid="b30-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
</p>
<p>A further role for the MDS and PDNS is to discuss advanced therapies with people with PD and their caregivers early in the disease course. To avoid “end-stage” perception, it is important they highlight that there may be a time when existing therapies are no longer effective, and at this point advanced therapies may offer much-needed improvements in QoL and motor function.

<xref rid="b33-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
They can then discuss with the MDS how to derive maximum benefit from such treatment when it becomes the appropriate option.</p>

<title>Identification of people with PD for advanced therapy, and selection and implementation of the appropriate therapy</title>
<p>Treatment with oral dopaminergic therapies usually controls motor symptoms in early PD, but as PD progresses it becomes less effective, resulting in motor and nonmotor fluctuations and dyskinesias.
<xref rid="b34-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>
The reasons for this are poorly understood, but probably involve pharmacokinetic factors.
<xref rid="b35-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>
The progression of PD has a substantial impact on health-related QoL.
<xref rid="b36-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>
During long-term follow-up, deterioration in physical mobility has been shown to be the most important factor contributing to decline in health-related QoL.
<xref rid="b37-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
A relationship between QoL for the person with PD and the caregiver’s perceived burden has also been demonstrated.
<xref rid="b38-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
At this stage of PD, it is important to ensure timely referral to an MDS before complications develop and QoL deteriorates.
<xref rid="b17-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
</p>
<p>Advanced therapies may be appropriate when motor fluctuations become refractory to adjustments in oral and transdermal medications and when such adjustments are complicated by the emergence (or worsening) of dyskinesias.

,
<xref rid="b40-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">40</xref>
Simplified criteria to help improve recognition of the advanced stages of PD despite an optimized oral drug regimen can include:
<list list-type="order">

</p>
<p>Raising awareness about when a person with PD might benefit from an advanced therapy is a key responsibility for the MDS. The PDNS, in providing individual care to alleviate the impact of PD on daily life, is well placed to assess whether a patient might derive more autonomy with an advanced therapy.
<xref rid="b41-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>
</p>
<p>Once the MDS has identified that a person with PD might benefit from an advanced therapy, he or she can discuss the options, advantages, and disadvantages of each treatment, and advise on how the advanced therapy can improve the patient’s symptoms. The PDNS can help the patient and their caregiver take an active role in the decision-making process,
<xref rid="b24-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
,
<xref rid="b41-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>
for example, by providing a portable test pump and tubing so that the person with PD can experience how it might feel to wear and carry it every day.</p>
<p>The PDNS and MDS aim to align the expectations of the person with PD and their caregiver with what can be achieved from a particular type of advanced therapy.</p>

<title>The regional MDT approach in the Netherlands (ParkinsonNet) improves quality of care and reduces health care costs</title>
<p>In the Netherlands, regional MDTs specialize in providing a particular type of advanced PD therapy.
<xref rid="b42-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">42</xref>
Such regional cooperation has improved the quality of care and reduced health care costs for people with PD.
<xref rid="b43-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">43</xref>
</p>
<p>All teams meet together regularly to discuss those people with PD who might have an indication for advanced therapy in their area and to exchange experience and knowledge. These meetings involve 10–15 MDSs and 10–15 PDNSs from the university hospital and the larger regional hospitals in the area. Decisions are made on the most suitable advanced therapy for each individual with PD using a matrix (
<xref ref-type="table" rid="t3-jmdh-10-013">Table 3</xref>
) that takes into account medical conditions, for example, impaired cognitive function. Recently published expert opinion recommendations give some guidance on the management of people with mild or moderate cognitive impairment.
<xref rid="b18-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
</p>
<p>ParkinsonNet (Nijmegen, the Netherlands) is also largely focused on “participatory medicine”, encouraging people with PD to take an active role in the management of their disease and act as partners in the decision-making process.
<xref rid="b28-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
They are then referred to a center, providing the chosen therapy, close to their home. To enable this collaboration, patients need to be well-informed and empowered to make a choice, through the provision of unbiased medical information presented in a way that can be easily understood.
<xref rid="b28-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
This collaboration requires physicians to “guide” patients, rather than telling them what to do.
<xref rid="b28-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
A decision aid to support people with PD make a choice about advanced therapies is being developed and was recently trialed with 19 patients.
<xref rid="b44-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">44</xref>
Overall, 100% of the participants stated that they would use the aid if faced with the choice, with 88% saying that the information was well balanced. The aid is currently being modified to include more first-hand patient experiences, and to include more practical information.
<xref rid="b44-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">44</xref>
</p>
<p>ParkinsonNet has not only provided more joined-up care for people with PD centered around evidence-based recommendations and best practice guidelines, but also reduced health care costs by approximately €20 million each year, illustrating that informed patients make the right decisions.

<title>The Düsseldorf Parkinson MDT network approach in Germany improves MDT communication and increases the individual with PD’s confidence in innovative therapies</title>
<p>The Düsseldorf Parkinson network is another approach to the MDT management of PD.
<xref rid="b46-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">46</xref>
A university-hospital–based MDS together with a PDNS and a general neurologist jointly see and discuss patients attending the general neurologist’s outpatient clinic. A diagnostic and therapeutic treatment strategy, such as planning an advanced therapy, can usually be developed at the time. This leads to greatly improved interaction and communication between experts from the Movement Disorders Center and the general neurologist; and involvement of the general neurologist increases the individual with PD’s confidence in innovative therapeutic options. Treatment can then be initiated promptly to improve the individual’s QoL.</p>
<p>After the joint outpatient consultation, the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are carefully planned in close consultation with the cooperating specialized disciplines (eg, gastroenterology for LCIG, neurosurgery for DBS) before the patient’s admission to ensure optimal resource utilization and effective clinical treatment.</p>
<p>The network has recently incorporated an integrated care contract, which includes the following approaches:
<list list-type="order">
<list-item>
<p>If the patient agrees to a proposed hospital admission, for example, to carry out LCIG therapy or DBS, then the patient’s data are forwarded to the patient manager of the university hospital. The patient manager immediately arranges the inpatient stay, the relevant interdisciplinary consultation with other specialized disciplines (eg, gastroenterology, neurosurgery), and the admission appointment with the patient by telephone.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>After the procedure, the patient is usually seen again at a joint consultation with their general neurologist, the MDS, and the PDNS to discuss and manage the new treatment. The PDNS may visit the patient at home up to four times during a 12-month period to offer further education or assistance in the handling of an invasive PD therapy.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>The patient may receive a telemedicine care program,
<xref rid="b47-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">47</xref>
in which case patient-related data are passed to the authorized PDNS, who then schedules a 4-week treatment period after consulting the insurance provider and the patient.</p>

<title>Implementing LCIG therapy</title>
<p>LCIG is an effective treatment option for advanced PD that significantly improves patients QoL and motor fluctuations. It is approved for the treatment of advanced levodopa-responsive PD with severe motor fluctuations and hyperkinesia/dyskinesia when available combinations of Parkinson medicinal products have not given satisfactory results.
<xref rid="b48-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>
For long-term administration, LCIG is administered with a portable pump directly into the jejunum by a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy
<xref rid="b49-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>
with a jejunal extension tube (PEG-J).
<xref rid="b48-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>
,
<xref rid="b50-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>
This alleviates the pharmacokinetic issues associated with oral levodopa–carbidopa, bypassing the often erratic gastric emptying in advanced PD.
<xref rid="b35-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>
The PEG-J procedure requires close cooperation between the MDS, a gastroenterologist skilled in carrying out the procedure in patients with PD, and nurses in the neurology and gastroenterology departments.</p>
<p>Accessibility to the gastroenterologist, whose expertise is required before, during, and after the procedure, and to deal with any problems or questions that might arise, is key. Some gastroenterologists may not be familiar with the PEG-J tubing and connections required for LCIG therapy, and so time will be required for:
<list list-type="order">
<list-item>
<p>familiarization with the equipment and</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>to develop understanding of the dyskinesias that occur in PD to ensure they do not interfere with the procedure.</p>
</list-item>
</list>
</p>
<p>It is important to optimize PD medication before PEG-J placement in order to achieve a balance between patient rigidity and dyskinesia, and facilitate insertion.
<xref rid="b51-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
,
<xref rid="b52-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>
</p>
<p>The PDNS ensures coordination between the person with PD, the caregiver, and all members of the MDT before, during, and after the procedure. It is useful to have an established protocol. In one center in Madrid, Spain (Hospital General Universidad Gregorio Marañón), a one-page wall-mounted illustrated protocol clarifies nursing roles and responsibilities throughout the titration process (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2-jmdh-10-013">Figure 2</xref>
).</p>
<p>In Denmark, the nurses in the neurology department take much of the postprocedural responsibility and are trained to manage the PEG-J, though can seek assistance from nurses in the gastroenterology department. The person with PD and their caregiver are trained to handle the pump and the practicalities of the treatment. They are also provided with contact numbers for specially trained community nurses and the hospital-based PDNS, along with advice about who to call and when.</p>
<p>At German model institutions, experience has shown that it is essential that the collaborating gastroenterologist is a skilled interventional endoscopist who is familiar with the procedure, the pitfalls, and the potential complications. Before starting the 2-day test phase with a nasointestinal tube, PD patients are routinely examined using fiberendoscopic evaluation of swallowing, videofluoroscopy, functional transnasal endoscopy to investigate the esophageal phase of deglutition,
<xref rid="b53-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>
high-resolution manometry, and endoscopy to assess the feasibility of the PEG-J procedure. However, most PEG-J placements worldwide are performed without this extensive workup.</p>
<p>Following standard operating procedures, and after a single dose of antibiotic intravenously, at least a transabdominal ultrasound should be performed to exclude anatomic problems, after which both nasointestinal tubes and PEG-J are placed on an inpatient basis. After successful implementation of the treatment, the patients are followed up in hospital, and at discharge, they are provided with domestic nursing staff to provide professional assistance.</p>

<title>A Canadian outpatient model significantly reduces the burden on limited health care resources</title>
<p>In Canada, an outpatient ambulatory model significantly reduces the cost for initiating LCIG and the burden on limited health care resources. It also offers greater flexibility in scheduling because it does not depend on the availability of an inpatient bed.
<xref rid="b54-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>
</p>
<p>In this model, a gastroenterologist is an integral part of the MDT and carries out a preprocedure consultation to screen for contraindications, to provide information on the insertion process and the risks and complications, and to obtain consent. The LCIG nurse (a hospital PD nurse trained in the LCIG pump system and titration) provides further information on the PEG-J and aftercare.</p>
<p>The PEG-J procedure is carried out on the outpatient endoscopy unit. The patient is under conscious sedation or given propofol for deep sedation, depending on clinician’s judgment and the level of dyskinesia. This involves close collaboration between the gastroenterologist, anesthesiologist, and movement disorder team. Appropriate placement of the J-tube is confirmed using a portable abdominal X-ray with contrast injected into the J-tube. The patient is discharged from the unit on recovery from the sedation. The next day, the gastroenterologist examines the stoma and confirms correct placement of the PEG-J in the ambulatory clinic.</p>
<p>Once the fistula tract of the PEG-J has matured, the patient returns for outpatient medication titration over a few days. The LCIG nurses titrate the LCIG dosage under the supervision of the neurologist and take a lead role in managing the pump; they are trained in basic stoma care and supported by the gastroenterologist.</p>
<p>The patients are followed up every 3 or 6 months, and the gastroenterologist examines the stoma and PEG-J placement at each visit.</p>
<p>It has proved beneficial for the trained gastroenterologist to train gastroenterologists in other centers and share best practices and learnings.</p>
<p>One consideration of this outpatient model is that patients who live at some distance from the health care center may find it difficult to attend the ambulatory clinic the following day and during the initial LCIG titrating phase. This can be overcome by providing accommodation in nearby housing or a hostel.</p>

<title>Discussion</title>
<p>The multifaceted nature of PD naturally lends itself to a multidisciplinary approach to care.
<xref rid="b55-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">55</xref>
A well-structured MDT can provide essential support in many areas of disease management, for example, with therapy decisions, which can become more complex as the disease progresses. Raising awareness about when a person with PD might benefit from an advanced therapy is a key responsibility for both the MDS and PDNS. The PDNS and MDS aim to align the expectations of the person with PD and their caregiver with what can be achieved from a particular type of advanced therapy. Through “participatory medicine” it is crucial that the MDT, while empowering people with PD and their caregivers to take an active role in management of their disease, provide unbiased information and advice as and when appropriate, tailoring it to the individual.
<xref rid="b28-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
</p>
<p>Available studies show that people with PD and their caregivers benefit from joined-up multidisciplinary care, although the number of reports in this area is still limited and very few controlled studies are available.

The key to the optimal management of people with PD at all stages of the disease, and successful implementation of advanced therapies, is an effective MDT approach, such as those models described in this paper. An optimal MDT structure can provide benefits for the patient and his or her caregiver, in addition to optimizing the success of treatment. With the increasing prevalence and burden of PD, and rising health care costs, the financial implications of such models are ever more important. In the Netherlands, regional MDTs that specialize in providing a particular type of advanced PD therapy (ParkinsonNet)
<xref rid="b42-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">42</xref>
have not only improved the quality of care but also decreased health care costs.
<xref rid="b43-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">43</xref>
In Germany, the Düsseldorf Parkinson network has led to greatly improved interaction and communication between experts from the Movement Disorders Center and the general neurologist, enabling more efficient initiation of advanced therapies. In Canada, the outpatient ambulatory model has been established for LCIG onboarding, to overcome the challenge and cost of obtaining inpatient beds.</p>
<p>Intensive multidisciplinary rehabilitation interventions for people with PD are particularly effective at improving QoL and motor function.
<xref rid="b1-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
<xref rid="b8-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>

<xref rid="b58-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">58</xref>
Although investment in such initiatives might prevent future costs attributed to disabling motor symptoms (eg, falls, loss of independence),
<xref rid="b58-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">58</xref>
innovative solutions should be considered to ensure such interventions can continue in the long-term, such as the Düsseldorf Parkinson network telemedicine care program. Not only do telemedicine approaches offer cost savings, they also have the benefit of opening up multidisciplinary care for people with PD who have limited access to specialist centers.
<xref rid="b59-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">59</xref>
While there are few studies of telemedicine in PD, schemes are on the increase enabling a better standard of care for patients in their homes or in remote areas.
<xref rid="b59-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">59</xref>
,
<xref rid="b60-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">60</xref>
Furthermore, valid remote assessments of people with PD have been performed, and a high degree of patient satisfaction was reported with these studies.
<xref rid="b59-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">59</xref>
,
<xref rid="b60-jmdh-10-013" ref-type="bibr">60</xref>
</p>
<p>There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to multidisciplinary care for people with PD; however, the models and studies discussed in this review may be adapted on a country/region/area basis. In countries lacking specialist MD services, a smaller, more localized MDT may be more realistic, with skilled physicians, who have experience in PD, initiating advanced therapies. Flexibility around implementing such approaches will increase access to multidisciplinary care for more people with PD, subsequently improving disease management, and ultimately patient and caregiver QoL.</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Limitations</title>
<p>Limitations of this review include the lack of a systematic literature search to identify relevant studies. Furthermore, very few published, controlled studies exist to quantify the effect on multidisciplinary interventions in PD. Finally, there is a lack of clinical guidelines in the subject area; hence, the recommendations provided here are informed by the clinical experience of the authors.</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Conclusion</title>
<p>The advantages of an MDT approach are clear and have been documented in several small studies, but larger scale, controlled trials are required to fully understand the benefits. Given the chronic nature of PD, and the difficulties many patients face traveling to appointments, particularly those with advanced disease, it is imperative that future studies consider innovative approaches to enable wider access to MDT care.</p>
<p>Based on the available literature and expert clinical experience of authors, key recommendations for the MDT approach for people with PD are:
<list list-type="order">
<list-item>
<p>to set up a close structured collaboration of different health care professionals working in a fixed network structure;</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>to refer people with PD to established MDT centers (where available) in a timely manner;</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>to establish regular meetings with treatment-responsible doctors and the MDT for interdisciplinary exchange and learning to optimize individual treatment and evaluate treatment options;</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>to ensure treatment decisions are agreed jointly between people with PD, their caregiver, family, and health care professional;</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>to include specialists outside of neurology from adjuvant medical departments as necessary when implementing advanced therapies.</p>
</list-item>
</list>
</p>
<p>Finally, the PDNS, a robust practical protocol that states who is doing what and when, and an effective network involving the community neurologist for training or consultation purposes are also pivotal to the success of the PD MDT.</p>
