Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The Monash-Alfred Protocol for Assessment of Atypical Parkinsonsian Syndromes (MAP-APS) is a single-site longitudinal registry of patients with APS.

Participants will undergo clinico-demographic and biosampling procedures at entry and periodically to aggregate a database.

Assessments include social and demographic data, medical and medication history. Disease specific neurological assessments using validated rating scales including the Movement Disorders Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale, Unified Multiple Systems Atrophy Rating Scale. General measures of function and disability include Hoehn and Yahr stage and Modified Rankin Scale. Cognitive screening assessment with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Frontal Assessment Battery and categorical fluency. Impact of disease and psychological assessments via validated patient reported outcomes including Neuro-QoL subscales and EQ-5D-5L.
Biological samples include Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the brain and blood samples (4x10mL tubes in total).

Eligible participants will be assessed at recruitment and then annually for up to 3 years; individuals within 5 years of index symptom onset will also undergo a once-off 6-month assessment.
