    The UPDRS-8 is an eight item version of the Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale. It can be completed in about 2 minutes and is ideal to monitor Parkinson's disease clinical status. It was developed by Hauser, Lyons, and Pahwa and is described in their publication in the International Journal of Neuroscience 2012. The full paper describing characteristics of the UPDRS-8 cab be downloaded from the journal at the following link: http://informahealthcare.com/doi/pdf/10.3109/00207454.2012.657381
