Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
When treated with deep brain stimulation, electrodes are inserted in the affected area of the brain and through stimulation, motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease are significantly reduced.
During the first year of DBS treatment patients and spouses may experience changes in everyday life and illness trajectory posing new opportunities as well as new challenges.
The purpose of the study is to develop an individualised and targeted nursing program to support patients and relatives manage changes and challenges in life the first three months after Deep Brain Stimulation. The intervention is expected to generate important knowledge that will serve as a foundation for the further development of a future nursing program.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The intervention consists of individually targeted meetings with a specialized DBS nurse several times during the first six months og DBS. Patients and spouses likewise have to fill out a diary for use in the meetings.
All meetings have specific topics, addressing aspects of challenges in adjusting to DBS, and the aim is to off patients and spouses a tailored intervention, supporting each individual based on an individual assessment.
