Integrated Management of Atypical Parkinsonism: A Home-based Patient-Centered Healthcare Delivery Based on Telenursing (IMPACT Study)

This project aims to investigate whether an integrated model based on proactive and reactive telenursing monitoring coordinated by a parkinsonism nurse specialist (case manager) is able to improve care delivery and quality of life of patients with atypical parkinsonisms. This could reduce the risk (e.g. through health education counselling) and the severity of complications (e.g. falls). Main responsibilities of the Co-PI: project idea and supervision, coordination of the study, patient selection and recruitment, patient recruitment, participation in statistical analysis and drafting the manuscript. Co-PI is responsible of the rate of recruitment and drop-out
