Non-motor Parkinson’s Disease

Description:

Non-motor Parkinson's Disease is a burgeoning area of the movement disorders field, as patients increasingly live longer and encounter more late-stage symptoms.

The spectrum of non-motor manifestations spans much of the body, with non-motor features occurring in all stages of the disease.

Identification of symptoms is key for preserving quality of life and successful treatment.

This is a practical manual on all aspects of pre-motor and non-motor manifestations of Parkinson's.

The genetic causes of non-motor symptoms are detailed and methods of patient evaluation summarized.

Topics such as autonomic and sexual dysfunction, mood disorders, and drug-induced symptoms of non-motor Parkinson's are covered in depth.

This is an essential resource for movement disorder specialists, neurologists and other clinicians involved in caring for those with Parkinson's disease.
