简要总结
This is a multi-centre, single-blinded, randomized, controlled trial for PwPD (people with Parkinson's Disease) to compare (i) OPTIM-PARK II (a novel personalized treatment based on the latest published research evidence and results from our extensive development work undertaken in OPTIM-PARK I) and routine care with (ii) routine care alone. The research team will provide a personalized list of available resources to the routine care arm at the end of the trial. The trial aims to recruit 60 PwPD and their carers (n=60) in the UK. This trial took place in 4 countries (Denmark, Norway, Spain and UK) but only Spain and UK included control groups, data collection in these two countries started in October 2022, after the iterative phase of the trial.
At the screening visit participants will be asked whether they would also be willing to take part in an additional qualitative study. A subgroup of participants will be selected from those that have indicated a willingness to take part in the qualitative study. Also, at the screening visit participants will be asked whether they have a carer. Having a carer is not a pre-requisite for PwPD being recruited into the trial. It is likely that some PwPD in the trial may not have a suitable carer. Where one is available, they will be invited to join the trial: if there is more than one, the main family carer, as identified by the PwPD, will be approached.

This is a multi-centre, single-blinded, randomised, controlled trial for PwPD to compare (i) OPTIM-PARK II (a novel personalised treatment based on the latest published research evidence and results from our extensive development work undertaken in OPTIM-PARK I) and routine care with (ii) routine care alone. The research team will provide a personalised list of available resources to the routine care arm at the end of the trial. The trial aims to recruit 60 PwPD and their carers (n=60) in the UK. This trial took place in 4 countries (Denmark, Norway, Spain and UK) but only Spain and UK included control groups, data collection in these two countries started in October 2022, after the iterative phase of the trial.
Participants allocated to the control group will received usual care and participants in the intervention group the Optim Park intervention.
This intervention will consist of the following:
First consultation with PwPD and carer "entrance" at point of entry to the study
The initial consultation with the PwPD and the carer will be a face-to-face consultation in the participants own home or at the clinic/primary care centre/community hub based on participants preference.

盲法说明
Participants cannot be blinded to the intervention they are receiving. Outcome assessors and the main investigators are blinded to group allocation and will not have access to the intervention treatment lists. Only the statistician performing the randomization, the team member supporting the coordinator and the coordinator who is delivering the intervention are aware of group allocation.
However, previous experience has shown that participants may occasionally and inadvertently inform assessors of the treatment they are receiving. The research team aim to reduce this effect by explicit reminders to participants before assessment visits. The research team shall ask all assessors to record their estimate of which group they think the participant belongs, and their confidence in that prediction. This will enable to test whether inadvertent loss of blinding leads to bias, and to adjust for any bias detected.

研究组 & 干预措施
Usual care ( control)
All participants in the trial will continue with their usual care as deemed appropriate by health care providers, this will usually comprise attendance at medical clinics, medication, and visits from PD nurse specialists. Participants may attend group activities or access resources as part of their usual care, though from experience such sessions are rarely intensive or prolonged. Participants will be asked to record their usual care and encouraged to avoid changing that practice unless specifically requested by a health care worker during the time they are participating in the trial.
Optim Park Intervention
A central component of the Optim-Park II intervention is to offer a single point of contact with a coordinator (appointed for the purpose of delivering the Optim-Park II intervention) to assess participants needs, have a discussion with participants to identify 3 main problems/targets PwPD and carers would most like to address based on their needs and then link up and refer participants to available community resources.
The coordinators will deliver the Optim-Park intervention for PwPD and their carers in three consultations: a consultation after the baseline assessment and randomization has been undertaken at the point of "entrance" to the study; a consultation in the middle of this period; and a follow-up consultation at "exit" at 3 months. Each consultation can last between 30 min and up to 2 hours. Each consultation can be with the pair of PwPD and carer or if appropriate, separately.
