Fujita T, Iwaki M, Hatono Y. The role of nurses for patients with Parkinson's disease at home: a scoping review. BMC Nurs 2024; 23:318. [PMID: 38730392 PMCID: PMC11088224 DOI: 10.1186/s12912-024-01931-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease, and many patients are cared for at home by nurses. Parkinson's disease nurse specialists have been certified in several countries. This study aimed to provide an overview of what is known about the role of nurses in the care of patients with Parkinson's disease at home and to determine the differences between nurses and Parkinson's disease nurse specialists. METHODS A scoping review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature were searched (keywords: Parkinson's disease AND nurse AND [community OR home]) for studies published in English up to September 2023 describing the nurse's role in caring for patients with Parkinson's disease at home. Studies without abstracts were removed, along with protocols, systematic reviews, and studies concerned with other diseases or including data that were difficult to distinguish from those of other diseases. Roles were described and organized by category. RESULTS A total of 26 studies were included. The nurses' roles were categorized as overall assessment and support, treatment management, safety assessment regarding falls, care for non-motor symptoms, palliative care, support for caregivers, education for care home staff, multidisciplinary collaboration, and provision of information on social resources. Medication management and education of care home staff were identified as roles of nurse specialists. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed the role of nurses caring for patients with Parkinson's disease at home. Because of the complexity of the patients' medication regimens, nurse specialists provide assistance, especially with medication management and the provision of education to care staff. This study will facilitate the preparation of nurses to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to help patients with Parkinson's disease, even in countries where Parkinson's disease nurse specialists are not officially certified, and will help patients feel comfortable with the care they receive.

[PMID: 35293943 PMCID: PMC10081600 DOI: 10.1590/1980-220x-reeusp-2021-0367] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: to map and analyze the scientific literature on nursing care aimed at people with Parkinson’s disease in Primary Health Care. Method: this is a scoping review using the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology, carried out between July and October 2020, and updated in November 2021 in six databases from nursing care and Parkinson’s disease descriptors, and their respective acronyms and synonyms in English, Portuguese and Spanish. Results: a total of 44 publications were included in this review, which identified as nursing care in Primary Care: assessment of motor and non-motor functions; management of activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living; disease self-management education for people with Parkinson’s and their care partners; supervised group approach; and personal factor management. Conclusion: Nursing care for people with Parkinson’s at the primary level essentially involves actions that include providing focused care at an individual and group level, encompassing clinical assessment, patient education, patient involvement in the social context of care, and developing positive relationships with family members and caregivers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the impact of the care of Parkinson disease nurse specialist on improving motor symptoms and life quality for patients with Parkinson disease (PD). METHOD This is a randomized controlled research, and it will be conducted from April 2021 to October 2021 at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital. The experiment was granted through the Research Ethics Committee of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital (004510293). All the patients suffer from PD, age 18 years or older, both female and male, regardless of the duration or severity of this disease are eligible. The exclusion criteria contains: lack sufficient knowledge to complete questionnaires, serious physical comorbidities or refuse to take part in the program. In our experiment, the major result measures are motor symptoms and life quality. For the measurement of life quality, we will utilize Parkinson disease Questionnaire-39, the most extensively utilized the scale of life quality in PD. The evaluation of motor symptoms severity is carried out with the revision of Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale sponsored by Movement Disorder Society. RESULTS Table 1 indicates clinical outcomes at different time points. CONCLUSION The Parkinson's disease nurse specialist care may promote the life quality in the PD patients. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER researchregistry 6284.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The increasing global burden of Parkinson's disease (PD) poses a particular challenge for developing countries, such as Thailand, when delivering care to a geographically diverse populace with limited resources, often compounded by a lack of expertise in the use of certain PD medications, such as device-aided therapies (DAT). AREAS COVERED A panel of local, regional, and international PD experts convened to review the unmet needs of PD in Thailand and share insights into effective delivery of DAT, focusing on experience with apomorphine infusion. Despite its proven efficacy and safety, implementation of apomorphine infusion as a new option was not straightforward. This has prompted a range of health-care professional and patient-focused initiatives, led by the Chulalongkorn Center of Excellence for Parkinson's Disease and Related Disorders in Bangkok, to help establish a more coordinated approach to PD management throughout the country and ensure patients have access to suitable treatments. EXPERT OPINION Overcoming the challenges of education, proficiency, resource capacity and standard of care for PD patients in developing countries requires a coordinated effort both nationally and beyond. The best practices identified in Thailand following the introduction of apomorphine infusion might be helpful for other countries when implementing similar programs.
