3 Introduction This document outlines the principles of management of patients with Parkinson s disease (PD) who have been admitted to an acute hospital in NHS Lothian and particularly those who have a compromised swallow or are nil by mouth (NBM). It is crucial that patients with PD always receive their PD medication on time even when they are unable to swallow. The purpose of this guidance is to describe how this is best achieved. Failure to administer PD medication can lead to swallowing problems and complications such as aspiration pneumonia, falls and confusion leading to patient distress and increased length of stay. The most severe, but very rare, complication is the Parkinsonismhyperpyrexia syndrome; clinically it is similar to the neuroleptic malignant syndrome. NHS Lothian PD Services We provide a co-ordinated PD service run by nurse specialists and consultants. Please call the PDNS hotline ( ) as the first point of contact, between 0900 and 1700, Monday to Friday. Our clinic letters are on TRAK and SCI Store. Please see the table of contacts in Appendix 1. 2
4 A. When a patient with PD is admitted to hospital 1. Obtain an accurate drug history a. Patient, carer, emergency care summary (ECS), GP or recent clinic letter on TRAK. b. Medication name, formulation, dose, timing and route of administration. 2. Prescribe usual medication at usual time a. Do not stop PD medications. b. Medication should be prescribed at the same time as taken at home; this may be different to the ward drug-round times. This must be emphasised to all staff caring for the patient. 3. Obtain PD medication as soon as possible, some of which may not be routinely stocked by the wards. a. Use the patient s own supply whenever possible. b. Do not record as 3 / unavailable on the drug chart. c. All medications are available from the pharmacy during opening hours. d. Contact your ward pharmacist to obtain supplies if needed urgently. e. Out of hours, supplies are located on other wards or in pharmacy and can be obtained by contacting bleep If a patient is admitted who is receiving Apomorphine, this should be continued and advice obtained from the PDNS team ( ), the patient s usual consultant or the ApoGo Helpline ( ). Do not commence Apomorphine on a previously Apomorphine naïve patient. Parkinson s disease medications Table 1. Parkinson s disease medications used in NHS Lothian Levodopa Formulations Co-beneldopa (Madopar) Dopamine Agonists Ropinirole (Requip/Requip XL) Co-careldopa (Sinemet/Sinemet CR) Pramipexole (Mirapexin/Mirapexin PR) Rotigotine (Neupro) Levodopa/carbidopa/ entacapone (Stalevo) Apomorphine Other PD Medications (these may be safely omitted in a patient who is NBM) Selegiline (Zelapar) (Eldepryl) Rasagiline (Azilect) Amantadine Entacapone (Comtess) Tolcapone Note. Refer to the BNF for the details of composition of PD medications. 3
5 B. Patients with swallowing problems Swallowing problems should be assessed and managed according to NHS Lothian guidance available on the intranet. Z/Stroke/Introduction/swallow%20screen%20V5_Aug% pdf Obtain an urgent assessment by the SALT team for patients who are unable to swallow or are nil by mouth (NBM). It is essential that patients receive their standard PD medication or an appropriate alternative medication when they require it. This may require the placement of a nasogastric (NG) tube for medication administration or, if appropriate, a Rotigotine transdermal patch may be prescribed. Medications which may be safely omitted are Entacapone, Selegiline, Rasagiline and Amantadine. Patients with PD dementia or pre-existing neuropsychiatric disturbances are at high risk of delirium and should be considered for dispersible Madopar orally or via the NG route in the first instance. Patients unable to swallow and taking Levodopa medications only If the patient has an NG tube in place, convert to an equivalent dose of Madopar 50/12.5 dispersible tablets according to Table 2. Controlled Release (CR) preparations contain the same amount of Levodopa as the immediate release preparations and the conversion to Madopar dispersible tablets is the same. For Stalevo 75, Stalevo 125 and Stalevo 175 formulations there is not a direct equivalent dose conversion to Madopar; therefore prescribe the suggested doses shown in table 2. 4

A Rotigotine transdermal patch may be prescribed. See conversion equivalent in Table 3 below. The starting dose of Rotigotine should be no higher than 8mg/24 hours for older or frail patients. b. The response should be assessed every 24 hours and titrated according to patient condition. The maximum daily dose for Rotigotine is 16mg/24 hours. c. Patches are available in 2mg, 4mg and 8mg strengths. Do not cut patches to achieve correct dose. d. Patch site should be rotated and not applied to same site for 14 days to avoid skin irritation. Dopamine agonists may precipitate or worsen confusion or hallucinations, should this occur, please seek advice from a member of the PD Team. 5

The starting dose of Rotigotine should be no higher than 8mg/24 hours for older or frail patients. If the patient is only taking a dopamine agonist medication Table 4 shows how crushed tablets may be given on a short term basis (i.e. first 48 hours) through an NG tube. Alternatively a Rotigotine patch may be applied and the appropriate dose conversions for Ropinirole and Pramipexole are shown in table 5 and table 6 respectively. Table 4.

C. The acutely confused patient with PD Patients with PD are at very high risk of delirium and falls, particularly those with underlying dementia or cognitive impairment which may not have been previously recognised. a. Search for the underlying cause e.g. infection, medication, metabolic disturbances. b. If sedation is required Lorazepam 0.5 mg is the drug of choice. c. Do NOT prescribe Haloperidol, Chlorpromazine or other antipsychotic agents without expert advice; these drugs block the dopamine receptors in the brain and will worsen PD symptoms. d. Seek advice from the PD team ( ). D. Nausea and vomiting in patients with PD Do NOT prescribe Metoclopramide or Prochlorperazine: these also block the dopamine receptors in the brain and will worsen PD symptoms a. Domperidone and Cyclizine are the anti-emetics of choice depending on the underlying cause. Domperidone use should be limited to short 7
9 term (see MHRA advice; the lowest dose for the shortest time should be prescribed). b. Ondansetron is not licensed for this indication, but may be prescribed if required and expert advice may need to be obtained. E. Surgery and patients with PD Please inform the PD Nurse Specialist team in advance of elective surgery ( ). a. All patients with PD are at high risk for post operative complications such as delirium, constipation and pneumonia. b. Patients should be discussed with an anaesthetist and placed near the beginning of the theatre list if appropriate. c. If likely to be NBM then non oral formulations of PD therapy should be considered and discussed with the PD team. 8
