Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in the sum score calculated from the 4 items of the affective dimension of the Pain Description List (Schmerzbeschreibungsliste SBL, question 10) of the German Pain Questionnaire [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 0) to Visit 2 (after at least 4 weeks on a maintenance dose of Neupro®) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

    The Pain Description List (SBL, question 10) is part of the validated German Pain Questionnaire (DSF).

    The SBL consists of a 12 item list of adjectives. Each adjective is ranked from 0 (not applicable) to 3 (exactly applicable).

    8 of the 12 adjectives will be used to assess the sensory items of pain and 4 adjectives to describe the affective items of pain.

    The 8 sensory items are used to assess qualitative description of pain. For the 4 affective pain items, a sum score is obtained with the highest possible score being 12. Values above 8 can be considered noticeable.



Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in the sum score of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part II [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 0) to Visit 2 (after at least 4 weeks on a maintenance dose of Neupro®) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The UPDRS is a scale for the assessment of function in Parkinson's disease. Part II measures 'Activities of Daily Living'. It consists of 13 questions, each ranging from 0 (none) to 4 (severe abnormalities). The sum score of the UPDRS Part II ranges from 0 (normal) to 52 (worst score possible).

  • Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in the sum score of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part III [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 0) to Visit 2 (after at least 4 weeks on a maintenance dose of Neupro®) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The UPDRS is a scale for the assessment of function in Parkinson's disease. Part III measures 'Motor Function'. It consists of 14 items with 27 questions, each ranging from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe abnormalities). The sum score of the UPDRS Part III ranges from 0 (normal) to 108 (worst score possible).

  • Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in the sum score of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Parts II+III [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 0) to Visit 2 (after at least 4 weeks on a maintenance dose of Neupro®) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The UPDRS is a scale for the assessment of function in Parkinson's disease. Part II measures 'Activities of Daily Living' and Part III 'Motor Function'. They consist of 40 questions, each ranging from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe abnormalities). The sum score of the UPDRS Part II+III ranges from 0 (normal) to 160 (worst score possible).

  • Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in the short-form Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-8) total score [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 0) to Visit 2 (after at least 4 weeks on a maintenance dose of Neupro®) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The PDQ-8 is a self-administered 8 item questionnaire that assesses the overall health status. The questions will be rated from 0 (never) to 4 (always [or cannot do at all, if applicable]).
