Clinical decision making for Parkinson's disease patients is supported by a combination of three distinct information resources: best available scientific evidence, professional expertise, and the personal needs and preferences of patients. All three sources have clear value but also share several important limitations, mainly regarding subjectivity, generalizability and variability. For example, current scientific evidence, especially from controlled clinical trials, is often based on selected study populations, making it difficult to translate the outcome to the care for individual patients in everyday clinical practice. Big data, including data from real-life unselected Parkinson populations, can help to bridge this information gap. Fine-grained patient profiles created from big data have the potential to aid in identifying therapeutic approaches that will be most effective given each patient's individual characteristics, which is particularly important for a disorder characterized by such tremendous interindividual variability as Parkinson's disease. In this viewpoint, we argue that big data approaches should be acknowledged and harnessed, not to replace existing information resources, but rather as a fourth and complimentary source of information in clinical decision making, helping to represent the full complexity of individual patients. We introduce the 'quadruple decision making' model and illustrate its mode of action by showing how this can be used to pursue precision medicine for persons living with Parkinson's disease.
