Screening for depression in movement disorders clinic

ConclusionEmotions Thermometer and NDDI-E are quick and reliable screening tools for depression in the MD population and are comparable to HADS. We suggest routine use of visual analogue ET4 as it is briefer, requires less time to complete and does not require scoring from the clinicians. It has the potential to be widely implemented across busy neurology clinics to assist in depression screening.
