Managing Parkinson's disease (PD) after deep brain stimulation (DBS) requires careful programming and follow-up. This guide addresses common issues and long-term care for optimal patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery

Background:

  • Parkinson's disease (PD) management post-deep brain stimulation (DBS) involves complex decision-making.
  • Effective postoperative care is crucial for optimizing therapeutic benefits and patient quality of life.

Framework:

  • Consensus report addressing key questions in DBS programming and medication management.
  • Systematic literature review (until mid-2004) combined with expert opinion.
  • Endorsed by Movement Disorder Society and American Society of Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery.

Implementation:

  • Guidance on programming initiation, screening, and effect assessment.
  • Strategies for titrating stimulation and medication for targeted sites.
  • Establishing follow-up protocols, including patient adjustments and contact schedules.

Implications:

  • Comprehensive management plan for common post-DBS issues: weight gain, dyskinesia, axial symptoms, speech, and behavioral problems.
  • Addressing long-term complications like infection, loss of effect, and tolerance.
  • Consideration of social, cognitive, and general medical factors for holistic patient care.
