Neptune: Neptune is a software algorithm that utilizes data from wrist-worn sensors to track Parkinson motor symptoms and displays them in an easy to understand graph. Neptune Care is a mobile app that includes a patient portal, where patients can self-report symptoms, view their motor data and get medication reminders, and a physician portal, where the treating physician can view the objective motor data and patient-reported outcomes prior to a clinical visit.
Standard clinical care: Treatment and management according to standard clinical care
Study summary
The overall aim of the trial is to compare the efficacy of using wearables and patient-reported outcome measures versus standard care in enhancing the timeliness of referrals to advanced monitoring of treatments for people with Parkinson's Disease.
