An item is considered positive when it is present and when the referring symptomatology improves with the next dose of dopaminergic medication.

  • 5. Patients who, in the investigator’s judgement, are capable of satisfying the
  • requirements of the protocol.
  • 6. Patients who are willing and able to give written informed consent according to legal requirements.
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
