Parkinson's Disease: Treatment

945
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's Disease (PD), involve the gradual and irreversible destruction of neurons in particular brain areas. These disorders exhibit standard features like proteinopathies, selective vulnerability of some neurons, and an interaction of intrinsic properties, genetics, and environmental influences in neural injury.
Parkinson's Disease is primarily a result of the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. The cornerstone of...

Parkinson's Disease: Overview01:15

Parkinson's Disease: Overview

1.7K
Neurodegenerative disorders are progressive diseases that cause irreversible damage and loss to neurons in specific brain areas. Examples of these disorders include Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). These disorders share characteristics such as proteinopathies, selective neuronal vulnerability, and a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. The primary therapeutic goal for these conditions is...

Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

1.8K
Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment

764
Alzheimer's Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder, is pathologically identified by amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles composed of tau protein. AD pharmacotherapy aims to manage cognitive symptoms, delay disease progression, and treat behavioral symptoms. The treatment is primarily symptomatic and palliative, with no definitive disease-modifying therapy available. Cholinesterase inhibitors, including donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne), are...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

226
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Myasthenia Gravis: Overview and Treatment01:20

Myasthenia Gravis: Overview and Treatment

2.7K
Myasthenia gravis is a neuromuscular transmission disorder characterized by weakness and increased fatigability of skeletal muscles. It is an autoimmune disease affecting approximately one in 2000 people, where antibodies against the α1 subunit of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are produced.
These antibodies interfere with the function of the nicotinic receptors in three ways: by binding to the receptor and disrupting acetylcholine binding; by causing cross-linking of receptors which...

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Palliative Care

    Background:

    • Movement disorders significantly impact patients and families, with unmet palliative care needs.
    • Traditional care models often fail to address non-motor symptoms, psychosocial support, and advance care planning.
    • Palliative care interventions show promise in improving outcomes for this population.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To familiarize readers with the multidimensional suffering associated with movement disorders.
    • To present a neuropalliative care framework and skillset for preventing and addressing suffering.
    • To highlight the importance of integrating palliative care into neurological practice.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current palliative care approaches for movement disorders.
    • Introduction of a five-pillars framework for neuropalliative care.
    • Discussion of integrating palliative care skills into routine neurological practice.

    Main Results:

    • A structured five-pillars framework (nonmotor symptoms, advance care planning, psychosocial/spiritual support, care partner support, specialist palliative care referral) can systematically address suffering.
    • This framework can be integrated into clinical workflows via screening forms and templates.
    • Neurologists can adopt primary palliative care skills to improve patient outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • Neuropalliative care is essential for managing the complex needs of patients with movement disorders.
    • The five-pillars framework provides a practical approach for neurologists to deliver comprehensive palliative care.
    • Further research is needed to optimize neurologist education and integration of palliative care.
