About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Parkinson's Disease focused on measuring Rotigotine, NEUPRO®, Parkinson's Disease (PD), perioperative use, anaesthesia,

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 80 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subject has idiopathic Parkinson's disease (early- or advanced-stage), as defined by the cardinal sign bradykinesia, plus the presence of at least one of the following: resting tremor, rigidity, or postural instability and is without any other known or suspected cause of Parkinsonism.
  • Subject is scheduled for an operation requiring general anesthesia.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject has previously been treated with rotigotine.
  • Subject has a history of significant skin hypersensitivity to adhesives or other transdermals or recent unresolved contact dermatitis or has a known allergy or hypersensitivity to rotigotine or to other components of the patch.
  • Subject is scheduled for a surgical procedure (surgery per protocol(SPP)) that requires magnetic resonance imaging or cardioversion.
  • Subject has a high probability to require extended postoperative ventilation (> 24 hours).
  • Subject has any medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, could jeopardize or compromise the subject's ability to participate in this trial.
