Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
There is no primary outcome measure. The study was not powered for a primary outcome measure - all outcome measures are described in the secondary outcomes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The following secondary outcome measures will be assessed using data collected in the REDcap database at one timepoint: 1. Number of participants with adverse events, where causality has been attributed to glycopyrronium bromide 2. Number of participants with serious adverse events, where causality has been attributed to glycopyrronium bromide 3. Number of participants with glycopyrronium bromide dose reductions due to adverse events 4. Number of participants with glycopyrronium bromide discontinuation due to adverse events 5. A change in a drooling severity scale such as the Drooling Impact Scale (DIS), Modified Teacher's Drooling Scale (mTDS) or other relevant scales. In the absence of any formal rating scale or any other terminology/description/indication that there has been no change, an improvement, or worsening of drooling or sialorrhoea symptoms will be reviewed. 6. Number of participants where glycopyrronium bromide is discontinued due to treatment failure
