24 h Levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel may reduce falls and "unresponsive" freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:We report a prospective, open label study of 24 h levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) as treatment for levodopa "unresponsive" freezing of gait (FOG) associated with Parkinson's disease. METHOD:5 patients with disabling FOG, documented as being levodopa "unresponsive", were commenced on continuous 24 h infusion LCIG therapy with the night-time rate at 50-80% of the daytime infusion rate. Patients underwent baseline, 3 and 6 month gait assessments, documentation of their falls frequency and completed FOG questionnaires. RESULT:Median 360° turn time improved by 54%, fall frequency score reduced from 3 to 0 at 6 months, FOG questionnaire score improved by 14% and Timed Up- and -Go 8 m walk was unchanged. CONCLUSION:24 h LCIG therapy may reduce levodopa "unresponsive" FOG and associated falls. A larger prospective study is needed for confirmation.
