(1) Background: Nomophobia is considered a digital and virtual contemporary society disorder and refers to discomfort, anxiety, nervousness, or distress caused by being out of contact with a cell phone or computer. The present study had a twofold objective: to evaluate the expert use of the Internet among Italian nurses by correlating it with socio-demographic characteristics, such as: sex, years of work experience, professional role, and level of nursing education; and to assess a possible increase in the levels of nomophobia among Italian nurses during COVID-19 compared to the pre-pandemic period. (2) Methods: An observational, cross-sectional, multicenter study was conducted from April to September 2020, such as during the First Wave of the COVID-19 outbreak. (3) Results: A total of 502 nurses were enrolled in the present study. Significantly differences were reported in the IAT (Internet Addiction Test) levels according to socio-demographic characteristics since males reported significantly higher IAT levels than females (p < 0.001). Nurses who worked more than 6 years reported significantly higher IAT levels (p = 0.031) than their younger colleagues. More nursing managers and coordinators reported significantly higher IAT levels than registered nurses (p < 0.001). This trend was repeated by considering the nursing educational level, as nurses who recorded more years of nursing educational level reported significantly higher IAT levels than the others (p = 0.003). Additionally, significant differences were reported according to all the socio-demographic characteristics considered and IAT subdimensions, namely: Salience, Excessive Use, Neglect Work, Anticipation, and Lack of Control. (4) Conclusions: The study revealed higher levels of Internet addiction in men than in women during the COVID-19 pandemic period, as well as a significant correlation between nomophobia, years of work experience, and the role of nursing coordinator/manager.

INTRODUCTION:Parkinson disease (PD) affects approximately 1% of women and men worldwide, particularly older than 60 years. It is a multisystem and neurodegenerative disease with genetics and environmental factors that result in deficits in the production of neurotransmitters, including dopamine. The levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) system delivers a continuous infusion of levodopa directly into the proximal small intestine via percutaneous endoscopic jejunostomy, largely bypassing gastric emptying and absorption problems and producing more stable plasma concentrations of levodopa, eliminating the development of motor complications (dyskinesias). The aim of this review was to summarize scientific evidence on the nursing role that, together with the multidisciplinary team, made the patient's choice in this therapeutic path (pre-LCIG phase). METHODS: A literature review was carried out, conducted on the MEDLINE databases (through PubMed), The Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, and CINAHL (through EBSCO). Relevant articles for the topic were found to identify indexed primary studies that investigated the relationship between the nurse and the patient/caregiver with PD who undertakes treatment with LCIG according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses checklist. RESULTS: Nineteen studies were included in the review. The selected studies suggested how the pre-LCIG phase of patient choice and the subsequent education and training could avoid selection errors for these therapeutic paths. CONCLUSION: Trained and specialized nursing staff who carry out an adequate pre-LCIG phase associated to the multidisciplinary team improved the choice of the patient and the start of treatment and, consequently, the quality of life of PD patients.
