目的：确定参加运动障碍（MD）门诊对帕金森病（PD）患者生活质量（QOL）结局的影响。研究方法：42例帕金森病患者参加了一个运动障碍诊所或更传统的一般医疗诊所的邮寄问卷调查，连续选择完成帕金森病生活质量问卷（PDQL）。所有患者均由对帕金森病（S.B.R.）感兴趣的顾问医生诊断。并至少三次到行动障碍诊所或普通诊所就诊。考试卷是独立于考官完成的，并邮寄回来。结果：运动障碍门诊的平均PDQL评分为124.1 [5.16]，普通医疗门诊为95.9 [5.86]。协方差分析显示，在MD门诊就诊的受试者的生活质量显著高于在普通医疗机构就诊的受试者（F（1，39）= 161.98，P<0.001）。结论：这些数据表明，参加运动障碍诊所的受访者的生活质量显着高于那些参加普通医疗诊所。
Objectives: to determine the effect of attending a movement disorders (MD) clinic on quality of life (QOL) outcomes for patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods: Postal questionnaire study of forty-two patients with Parkinson's disease attending either a movement disorders clinic or more conventional general medical clinic were selected consecutively to complete the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (PDQL). All patients were diagnosed by a consultant physician with an interest in Parkinson's disease (S.B.R.) and had attended either the movement disorders clinic or the general medical clinic on at least three occasions. Questionnaires were completed independently of the examiners and returned by post. Results: Mean PDQL score was 124.1 [5.16] in the movement disorders clinic and 95.9 [5.86] in the general medical clinic. Analysis of covariance revealed that those subjects attending the MD clinic reported a significantly higher QOL than those subjects in general medical care (F(1,39)= 161.98, P<0.001). Conclusion: These data indicate that the quality of life of respondents attending the movement disorders clinic is significantly higher than those attending the general medical clinic.
