About this study

Official title: Prevalence of Visual Dysfunction in Persons With Parkinson's Disease and Other Neurological Disorders

The objective is to determine the prevalence of visual dysfunction in People with Parkinson's Disease (PwP). The investigators will administer the: Visual Impairment in Parkinson's Disease Screen and Revised-Self-Report Assessment of Functional Visual Performance. Patients seen at Fixel Institute and their caregivers will be invited to participate. Responses to the 2 questionnaires will help determine prevalence rates of visual dysfunction in PwP compared to those both with and without other neurological conditions.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to identify the prevalence of visual dysfunction among Persons with Parkinson's Disease, compared to other neurological conditions and controls without neurological conditions.

Data will be collected anonymously via RedCap. Patients seen at the Fixel Institute that have consented to be contacted regarding research opportunities will be recruited via blast email and advertisement in our Institute's monthly newsletter, the Movement Messenger. The email and newsletter will contain a link for participation in surveys within RedCap so the surveys can be completed anonymously at home. Participation will be completely voluntary and responses will be recorded anonymously. Data will include responses to the following: screening questions, the VIPDQ (Visual Impairment in PD Questionnaire), and the R-SRAFVP (Revised-Self-Report Assessment of Functional Visual Performance).

The investigators will calculate the prevalence of visual impairment (from the VIPDQ) and dysfunction in performance of daily activities (from the R-SRAFVP) for PwP and compare this to the prevalence occurring in other neurological populations as well as the population without any neurological conditions. Other data are collected so the investigators can then evaluate potential confounds or covariates. To ensure statistical methods are accurate, a statistician will be consulted.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Visual Dysfunction

    Determined from VIPDQ: (with the highest and lowest scores on the VIPD-Q Score). Answers are given on a 4-point Likert scale ranging from "never have problems" to "daily problems"

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Functional Visual Performance

    Determined from R-SRA FVP: SRAFVP %

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parkinson Disease and Other Neurological Disorders, run by University of Florida at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Visual Dysfunction (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jun 2024.
