Abstract

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease and its pharmacological treatment usually has unwanted side effects (motor fluctuations, dyskinesias and other motor alterations). These effects vary from patient to patient, resulting in the use of «trial and error» manual methods by healthcare professionals to optimize treatment. The GIMO-PD project (Mobile health solution based on Genetic profile, Image analysis and the permanent Monitoring of symptoms for the personalized management of Parkinson’s Disease patients) aims to present a technological solution for improving clinical decision-making on the allocation of appropriate personalized treatments according to the characteristics of each PD patient. This clinical decision support system integrates and combines patient biomarkers (such as genetic and neurological markers), motor markers (based on the computerised monitoring of activity and movement) and the digitization of clinical practice guidelines to optimise the diagnosis and treatment processes of patients with PD and to improve their quality of life.
