Summary

This descriptive observational study will involve dyads of Parkinson Disease patients and their caregivers. Participants will be recruited from the Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Centre of ASST Gaetano Pini-CTO. Validated questionnaires, such as the WHOQOL-Bref, the Self-care of Chronic Illness Inventory version 2, and the Caregiver Self-efficacy in Contributing to Self-care Scale, will be administered. The study will also include semi-structured interviews to gather qualitative data on the patients' and caregivers' perceptions of self-care. A non-probabilistic convenience sampling method will be used, with the inclusion of both patients at any disease stage and their primary caregivers. The sample size will range 311 dyads with 5% margin of error.
