Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disease associated with physical, mental and cognitive symptoms impacting an estimated 6.2 million people worldwide. Its incidence is expected to double by 2030. Motor symptoms such as movement problems, but also non-motor symptoms such as sleep disorders, anxiety and depression, can have a significant impact on the quality of life of affected persons and their relatives. Considering these developments, it is urgently required to develop and implement an optimized care concept.
The iCARE-PD consortium is a multinational multidisciplinary research project aiming to develop innovative sustainable care models shifting from an (in)outpatient care model to home-based community centred integrated health care that focus in Integrated Care, Self-management support and Technology-enabled Care using a patient-centred approach.
This annual meeting of the iCARE-PD consortium is open to anyone interested in contributing to the conversation and will be hosted on May 10, 1.30-5.00 pm and will be held in English.
