Understanding Advanced Parkinson’s Syndrome: Challenges and Solutions

By Wolfgang Jost

In recent years, medical professionals have made significant progress in diagnosing and treating the early stages of Parkinson’s disease. The development of effective diagnostic tools, differential diagnostics, and initial therapies has enabled patients to achieve a good and stable condition over a relatively long period. However, the journey doesn’t end there. As the disease progresses, new challenges emerge, requiring innovative solutions.

Fortunately, research has also led to breakthroughs in treating advanced Parkinson’s syndrome. For instance, deep brain stimulation and intrajejunal L-Dopa administration have shown promising results in controlled studies. Despite these advancements, the complexity and individuality of motor and non-motor symptoms in this phase of the disease pose new challenges for healthcare professionals.

This book aims to shed light on the problems and proposed solutions for advanced Parkinson’s syndrome through real-life case studies. By exploring the multifaceted nature of this condition, we hope to improve understanding and develop more effective treatment strategies.
