The Movement Disorders Society clinical diagnostic criteria for Parkinsons disease (MDS-PD) allow highly sensitive and specific diagnosis of Parkinsons disease. However, their adoption has been limited due to lack of a clinical decision support (CDS) tool to support clinicians and researchers in systematically and accurately applying the MDS-PD criteria. We have developed and performed preliminary validation of a CDS platform for PD (CDS-PD) as a modular and extensible informatics platform with comprehensive functionalities for recording relevant patient information. We have performed real-time application of diagnostic algorithm of the MDS-PD criteria. The CDS-PD platform shows high concordance with application of the MDS-PD criteria by experienced movement disorders neurologists for established PD (disease duration [≥]5 years). The CDS-PD platform is a step towards realizing the standardized electronic implementation of the MDS-PD criteria for PD patient care and clinical trials at point-of-care. The CDS-PD platform can be accessed after registration at weblink https://www.cdspd.org.
