简要总结
Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and related disorders (PRD) are debilitating, costly, and understudied conditions. Improving access to comprehensive, specialized, in-home patient care offers the potential to minimize the downward spiral of morbidity and preventable healthcare utilization. The aim of this study is to test whether and to what degree an interdisciplinary home visit program will improve patient- and caregiver-reported outcomes, and to identify unmet needs in this population.
详细描述
Participants can elect to complete either the Home Visit Arm of the study or the Usual Care Arm of the study.
Home Visit Arm:
This interdisciplinary home visit program consists of 4 visits to patients' homes over the course of one year from a team of a movement disorders doctor, a nurse, a research coordinator, and a social worker. The team will come to a patient's home and assess the needs of both the patient and caregiver (if present), and connect the patient with any needed services. These visits can replace or be in addition to seeing another movement disorders doctor.
Usual Care Arm:
The information collected from the home visit participants will be compared to data collected from participants who elect to complete the usual care arm of the study. These participants and their caregivers (if available) will be invited to complete an online version of the survey. They will be contacted 12 months after their initial completion of the survey to complete a follow-up survey.

- •Subjects must be English speaking.
- •Additional Inclusion Criteria For the Home Care Arm:
- •Each subject must either 1) be willing and able to provide written, informed consent for the study, and for whom capacity to consent will be assessed, or 2) if unable to provide informed consent due to lack of capacity, a caregiver is able to provide informed consent and the subject provides assent to participation.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Patient Quality of Life as Measured by the EuroQol 5-D (EQ-5D) Scale Between Baseline (Visit 1) and 1 Year (Visit 4)
时间窗: 1 year
This scale is a brief, 6-item instrument measuring five specific domains of health-related quality of life (mobility, self-care, activities of daily living, anxiety/depression, pain/discomfort) and overall well-being. Items are scored on a 1-5 scale, with 5 indicating the highest level of perceived problems. Scores at Visits 1 and 4 will be compared.
Change in Overall Quality of Life as Measured by the EuroQol 5-D (EQ-5D) Scale Visual Analog Scale Item Between Baseline (Visit 1) and 1 Year (Visit 4)
时间窗: 1 year
This item is a 0-100 point visual analog scale for rating overall quality of life where 0 is "the worst" and 100 "the best health you can imagine". Scores at Visits 1 and 4 will be compared.
次要结局
- Change in Caregiver Strain as Measured by the Multidimensional Caregiver Strain Index (MCSI) Between Baseline (Visit 1) and 1 Year (Visit 4)(1 year)
