The diagnostic process for patients presenting with cognitive decline and suspected dementia is complex. Physicians face challenges distinguishing between normal aging, mild impairment, Alzheimer's disease, other dementias. Although there some evidence improving attitudes towards the importance of prompt diagnosis, limited information describing how physicians approach this challenge in practice. This was explored present study. Across-sectional survey primary care specialist physicians, 5...
Prior studies have identified numerous barriers to the prompt diagnosis of patients with suspected Alzheimer's disease (AD). The aim study was evaluate physician's perceptions importance previously diagnosis, but a specific focus on presentation mild cognitive impairment (MCI), which may be indicative neurodegenerative disorders such as AD. A second how perspective primary care physicians (PCPs) differ from that specialists. cross-sectional online survey PCPs and specialists who routinely...
Agitation is a common feature of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Previous research indicates that specific symptoms impact caregiver burden in these conditions, but the agitation on experience poorly understood. The aim this study was to characterise providers informal care for patients with schizophrenia who agitation.In total, 297 matched patient surveys were collected across UK, Germany Spain between October 2016 January 2017. To be eligible, caregivers needed provide diagnosis or...
To address knowledge gaps regarding burdens associated with not adequately controlled chronic hypoparathyroidism.Global patient and caregiver survey.Patients hypoparathyroidism on conventional therapy their caregivers.Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) health status were evaluated using the 36-item Short Form version 2 (SF-36 v2.0) Five-Level EuroQoL 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) instruments, respectively. Hypoparathyroidism-associated symptoms assessed by a disease-specific Hypoparathyroidism...
Agitation is a common manifestation of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia which includes symptoms ranging from inner tension unease to violence aggression. Much the existing literature has focused on agitation in acute setting, with patient experience poorly defined. Thus, aim this study was characterize its management perspective, focus those who reside community. Surveys were completed across Germany, Spain UK by 583 community dwelling patients or experienced episodes agitation. Patients...
Data suggesting that low physical activity levels are associated with increased mortality and exacerbations in patients COPD have led to increasing interest the role of COPD. This study evaluated self-reported functional performance, a measure impairment, according current treatment regimen, lung function, symptoms, Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) 2017 groups large sample COPD.This multicenter, cross-sectional, observational (study identifier: D5970R00003)...
To understand the current treatment patterns, clinical outcomes and healthcare resource utilization-associated costs for multiple myeloma patients, post autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) across Europe.Medical records were used to abstract data 337 patients who had received ASCT.Following ASCT, 7% maintenance therapy prior progression. Lenalidomide was most frequently prescribed maintenance, second- third-line therapy. Monthly use considerably lower in (€638.14 vs €1001.74). Median time...
The 6-point version of the Mayo score relies on two patient-reported outcomes (PRO2): stool frequency and rectal bleeding. We assessed feasibility acceptability remote online PRO2 reporting for golimumab-treated ulcerative colitis (UC) patients.This was a UK-based, multi-centre, prospective, real-world, non-interventional pilot study. Eligible patients completed scores at baseline every 4 weeks over period 6 months. Demographics were collected satisfaction questionnaire study end. Each...
Significant knowledge gaps exist regarding the humanistic effects of hypoparathyroidism (HypoPT), a rare debilitating disorder. We report results from global survey (13 countries) to characterize impact HypoPT on health-related quality life (HRQoL) patient perspective. An anonymous was conducted in patients with uncontrolled chronic (as determined by patients’ persistent symptoms and/or poorly controlled calcium levels as told their physician) despite receiving conventional therapy. Patients...

Hypoparathyroidism (HypoPT) is associated with significant symptom burden. We present results from a global survey (13 countries) to characterize HypoPT burden the patient and caregiver perspectives. An anonymous was conducted in patients uncontrolled chronic (as determined by patients’ report of persistent symptoms and/or poorly controlled calcium levels as told their physician) despite receiving conventional therapy. Patients currently or previously treated parathyroid hormone were...
Hypoparathyroidism (HypoPT) is a rare disorder managed by conventional therapy of oral calcium and vitamin D; however, some patients on remain symptomatic. We report results from global patient survey (13 countries) to assess burden illness associated with HypoPT. An anonymous was conducted in uncontrolled chronic HypoPT (as determined patients’ reports persistent symptoms and/or poorly controlled levels as told their physician) despite receiving therapy. Patients currently or previously...
