Abstract Background There are currently no standard diagnostic criteria for characterizing advanced Parkinson’s disease (APD) in clinical practice, a critical component in determining ongoing clinical care and therapeutic strategies, including transitioning to device-aided treatment. The goal of this analysis was to determine the proportion of APD vs. non-advanced PD (non-APD) patients attending specialist PD clinics and to demonstrate the clinical burden of APD. Methods OBSERVE-PD, a cross-sectional, international, observational study, was conducted with 2615 PD patients at 128 movement disorder centers in 18 countries. Motor and non-motor symptoms, activities of daily living, and quality-of-life end points were assessed. The correlation between physician’s global assessment of advanced PD and the advanced PD criteria from a consensus of an international group of experts (Delphi criteria for APD) were evaluated. Results According to physician’s judgment, 51% of patients were considered to have APD. There was a moderate correlation between physician’s judgment and Delphi criteria for APD (K = 0.430; 95% CI 0.406–0.473). Activities of daily living, motor symptom severity, dyskinesia duration/disability, “Off” time duration, non-motor symptoms, and quality-of-life scores were worse among APD vs. non-APD patients (p |
