No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to study different kinds of dyskinesias in advanced Parkinson's disease appearing at different levels of levodopa infusion dose. The hypothesis is that different dyskinesias (dystonia, chorea) correlate to different levels of levodopa concentrations, as detected in plasma.
