Release date: 2017-04-11

It is understood that Parkinson's disease has become the "third killer" of middle-aged and elderly people after cancer and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. As of 2017, the world's Parkinson's disease has been discovered for 200 years, and China's Parkinson's disease has been treated for 40 years, but the public's understanding of Parkinson's disease is still very low. research has shown--

l More than 90% of the public do not understand Parkinson's disease, and more than half of them think that Parkinson's disease is Hawking's "frozen disease"
l More than 34% believe that acupuncture can cure Parkinson
l More than 93% of people do not know the surgical treatment of Parkinson's disease
More than 60% of non-neurosurgists do not understand disease and brain pacemaker surgery

On April 11th, another year of World Parkinson's Disease Day, in order to better benefit Parkinson's disease, Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Group of Chinese Medical Association Neurology Branch, Neurology Physician Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Parkinson And the Sports Dysfunction Group and Medtronic launched the "Hug Tulip" project, which will continue to invest in professional neuro-internal and surgeon training, patient disease science education, and popular disease knowledge popularization.

So, about Parkinson's disease, do you know geometry?

What is Parkinson's disease?

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease caused by the degeneration of dopamine (DA) neurons in the brain, which leads to a decrease in the secretion of dopamine secreted by the brain.

With the current improvement in treatment levels, more and more patients can maintain a better quality of life through drugs or surgery. However, if you do not get timely and reasonable treatment, it is easy to cause physical decline, and even life can not be self-care and disability, and finally there are complications such as pneumonia, urinary tract infections that may threaten life.


Can Parkinson's disease be prevented?

Parkinson's disease is unpreventable because the cause of Parkinson's disease is unclear, but many studies have suggested that it may be associated with environmental toxins. Therefore, we must pay attention to avoid exposure to some environmental risk factors, such as pesticides, pesticides, heavy manganese, and those with relatives of Parkinson's disease should avoid welding.

Professor Wang Zhenfu said that there is still no cure for Parkinson's disease, but through the combination of medical medicine, surgery and other assisted rehabilitation, the symptoms can be greatly relieved, allowing patients to live independently and maintain a good quality of life. .


Can Parkinson's disease cure?

There is still no cure for Parkinson's disease.


What are the effective treatments for Parkinson's disease?

(1) medical treatment; (2) surgical treatment of brain pacemakers. By adopting a combination of medical medicine, surgery and other assisted rehabilitation methods, symptoms can be greatly alleviated, allowing patients to live independently and maintain a good quality of life, while Chinese medicine acupuncture, stem cells and other treatments for Parkinson are currently No clear literature shows that it is valid.


What is brain pacemaker surgery?

Experts point out that brain pacemaker (DBS) is the only effective surgical treatment for Parkinson's disease.

The so-called DBS, the deep brain electrical stimulation, commonly known as brain pacemaker, is a milestone new technology in the field of surgical treatment of Parkinson's disease. It is the most advanced neurological regulation technology in the world by stimulating the brain core group by the electric pulse implanted in the tiny electrode in the brain to achieve the purpose of controlling the patient's symptoms. This technology is quite mature in Europe and the United States. Professor Hu Yongsheng, deputy director of Functional Neurosurgery, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, said that brain pacemakers can significantly improve the symptoms of slowness, muscle stiffness and/or tremors in patients with Parkinson's disease, and can also significantly reduce the use of drugs. The side effects produced.

Many studies have also shown that the efficacy is significant, the majority of patients after the operation can significantly reduce the amount of medication, and the activity capacity is significantly improved. In the past ten years, the development of this technology in China has gradually matured, and the safety and effectiveness of its treatment have been recognized. Currently, brain pacemakers have become the surgical treatment of choice for Parkinson's disease.


What are the indications for surgical treatment of brain pacemakers?

1. Primary Parkinson's disease;
2. Taking compound levodopa has a good effect;
3. The curative effect has been significantly reduced or severe motor fluctuations or dyskinesia have occurred, affecting the quality of life;
4. Exclude dementia and severe mental illness.

When Parkinson's disease progresses to about four years, with the significant reduction in drug efficacy, increased side effects, or severe allodynia, it is the best time to perform Parkinson's surgery on Parkinson's surgery.


What is the safety of brain pacemaker surgery?

The brain pacemaker technology is very mature and has been used clinically for more than 30 years to benefit 140,000 Parkinson's patients. Xuanwu Hospital is one of the earliest hospitals in China to carry out brain pacemaker surgery. It has accumulated nearly 20 years of surgical experience and is currently the world's largest brain pacemaker implant center.

What does Parkinson have to do with tulips?

What is the significance of the “Hug Tulip” series of health actions?

According to Prof. Chen Haibo, member of the Standing Committee of the Chinese Medical Association Neurology Branch and the head of the Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Group of the Chinese Medical Association Neurology Branch, the “Hug Tulip” project plans to conduct more than 500 patient science education in the country within five years. During the year, the company has trained more than 5,000 neurosurgical specialists; and continues to carry out scientific activities on diseases and treatments every year. It is committed to raising public awareness of Parkinson's disease and improving the diagnosis and treatment of Parkinson's disease professionals. Patients provide long-term disease management programs.
