Impulsive-Compulsive Behaviours in Belgian-Flemish Parkinson's Disease Patients: A Questionnaire-Based Study.

Conclusions: We have developed a Belgian-Flemish version of the QUIP, which can be used as a screening questionnaire for ICB in PD patients. Our data suggest that sensitivity is high, specificity is low, and validity of the questionnaire is similar to the original version. We confirm the necessity of additional clinical assessment of QUIP-positive patients to ascertain a diagnosis of ICB. PMID: 31011412 [PubMed]
