Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the causes of hospitalisation via emergency services in patients with degenerative parkinsonian syndromes. All causes of hospital admission through the emergency department among patients with Parkinson's-related disorders were analysed in order to understand their vulnerability and the factors that worsen their health status. Data from included patients were compared to those of age-matched individuals without Parkinson's disease.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• To identify the principal diagnosis in patients with Parkinson's disease that lead to emergency admission followed by hospitalization, and compare them with those observed in a population of non-Parkinson's patients.

  ICM 10's Code of the principal cause of hospitalisation for each stay of patient after emergency room consultation

  Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (5)

• To assess the factors associated with the occurrence of hospitalization via the Emergency Department in Parkinson's patients, including: patient age.

  Through study completion, an average of 1 year

• To assess the factors associated with the occurrence of hospitalization via the Emergency Department in Parkinson's patients, including: disease duration.

  Through study completion, an average of 1 year

• To assess the factors associated with the occurrence of hospitalization via the Emergency Department in Parkinson's patients, including: type and dosage of antiparkinsonian treatment.

  Through study completion, an average of 1 year

• To assess the factors associated with the occurrence of hospitalization via the Emergency Department in Parkinson's patients, including: concomitant non-parkinsonian treatments (e.g., antihypertensive drugs).

  Through study completion, an average of 1 year

• To assess the factors associated with the occurrence of hospitalization via the Emergency Department in Parkinson's patients, including: comorbidities.
