The “Parkinson's disease(PD)therapeutic guideline 2002(PGL)” was published by Societas Neurologica Japonica in Japan. The guideline, which is based on evidence-based medicine(EBM), is a good reference for making medical decisions. Although physicians recognize the usefulness of the guideline, it is unclear whether PD patients know of the its existence. We performed a survey of 42 PD patients to evaluate their thoughts on the guideline. Sixty-seven percent of the patients had no knowledge of the existence of the PGL. However, after informing them of the existence of the PGL, 93% of the patients welcomed its publication. Forty-three percent of the patients wanted to read the PGL, although they expressed reservation that the PGL might be difficult to understand. Ninety-five percent of the patients answered that they would read the PGL if an easy-to-read explanation manual were provided. However, none of the patients wanted an excessively strict obedience to the PGL. Eighty-three percent of the patients wanted a flexible application of the PGL to their own therapy. The PGL seems to have been accepted by the patients. A plain-language explanation manual of the PGL for PD patients, if published, would be helpful to the patients' understanding of PD therapy and to building cooperation between patients and physicians.
