Ms.
Liu has been suffering from Parkinson’s disease for six years. Severe stiffness of her limbs has led to her inability to stand and walk. She needs a wheelchair for daily travel. At present, she takes six kinds of drugs every day, including Entacapone, Medopa, Selegiline, Pramipexole, Ropinirole and Clozapine. Adjusting the feeling of medication is not very effective. Increasing the dosage is abnormal. The dosage is less and useless. There is no room for adjustment in these years of medication.
The patient with Parkinson’s disease came to consult what else could he do without the space to adjust the medicine? Do you need surgery? At present, the drugs taken by Ms. Liu basically cover the main drugs for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. There are complications in drug treatment and loss of self-care ability. In this case, there is basically no room for drug adjustment. The best way at this stage is surgery, that is, deep brain stimulation surgery.
Medication diary
After understanding, Ms. Liu is in line with the diagnosis of primary Parkinson’s disease, the initial effect of taking Madopar is particularly good, stiffness starts from the left side, and gradually develops to both sides. After psychological and cognitive assessment, she is suitable for deep brain stimulation surgery, which can at least restore her ability to live independently and improve her quality of life.
Brain pacemaker surgery is an effective treatment for Parkinson’s disease, which can significantly improve the symptoms of patients and improve the quality of life, but it can not completely cure Parkinson’s disease. It can effectively improve the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease by implanting electrodes in specific areas of the brain, connecting nerve stimulators and delivering electrical stimulation to regulate nerve function.
It can significantly improve the motor symptoms of
Parkinson’s disease, such as tremor, stiffness and bradykinesia, and improve the self-care ability of patients. After surgery, the tremor of many patients was significantly reduced or even disappeared, and their limbs were more flexible, and they were able to carry out some daily activities, such as dressing, eating, walking and so on, which greatly improved the quality of life of patients.
