NP-C patient survey:
Journey to Diagnosis - specialist reports
In 2010 a patient survey was carried out with parents and carers of patients with NP-C in six European countries. The survey results provided a detailed picture of their experience of the journey to diagnosis, the physical and emotional impact and the importance of early diagnosis in order to access support before, during and after reaching a diagnosis.
The survey results have been compiled into four reports aimed at neurologists, psychiatrists, metabolic disease specialists and pediatricians. The main body of the reports is the same for each specialist group, however targeted introductions and case reports have been included for each speciality. A slide set has also been developed that you may find useful for sharing these survey results with other healthcare professionals.
