abstract = {Traditional advanced therapies in Parkinson's disease (PD)
with motor fluctuations and dyskinesias like continuous
apomorphine infusion (CSAI), levodopa-carbidopa intestinal
gel (LCIG), levodopa-carbidopa entacapone intestinal gel
(LECIG), or deep brain stimulation (DBS) have played a
central role in managing therapy-related complications.
Recently, continuous subcutaneous foslevodopa/foscarbidopa
infusion (CSFLI) has emerged as a novel therapeutic option.
This manuscript provides insights from one year of
real-world experience with CSFLI, addressing critical
questions that clinicians face when selecting the most
appropriate therapy for advanced PD. Our discussion centers
on key considerations for patient selection, exploring which
individuals may benefit more from CSFLI compared to other
device-aided therapies. We highlight CSFLI's advantages in
flexibility and ease of use but also consider limitations,
particularly its side effects, such as skin-related issues.
Recommendations are presented on how to prevent and manage
these adverse effects to maximize patient compliance and
therapeutic success. Additionally, the paper examines
strategies for optimizing concurrent oral medications when
combined with CSFLI, providing guidance on balancing pump
infusion with necessary adjunctive oral treatments.},
