Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: This pilot study is designed to provide exploratory information on the feasibility of perioperative rotigotine treatment in a limited number of subjects with PD. In addition, efficacy and safety information on the use of rotigotine as part of the perioperative management of Parkinson’s Disease will be collected.;Secondary Objective: Other variables in this trial are plasma concentration of rotigotine and apparent dose. These variables will be analyzed using descriptive methods only. The variables including summary statistics will be displayed (n, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, minimum, median, and maximum).;Primary end point(s): • Feasibility assessment questionnaire by the anesthesiologist • Feasibility assessment questionnaire by the neurologist • Feasibility assessment questionnaire by the subject • Plasma concentrations of rotigotine • Apparent dose • Observation and assessment of AEs • Laboratory parameters • Vital sign measurements (blood pressure, pulse) • Physical examination findings • 12-lead ECG
