Parkinson’s pathology: DaTSCAN

The basal ganglia has 2 major pathways:

Direct and Indirect

  • The direct pathway facilitates movement.
  • The indirect pathway inhibits movement
  • Striatal dopamine excites the direct pathway

(increasing movement), and suppresses the indirect pathway (increasing movement)

Treatment for Parkinson’s Disease Motor Symptoms: Medications

Carbidopa/Levodopa: Effects

— The most effective and generally well-tolerated medicine for PD — Short half-life (~45 to 90 minutes), needs to be taken frequently as PD progresses — Ideally should be taken 1 hour before or 2 hours after a protein-rich meal — Main side effects: nausea, lightheadedness, hallucinations, and dyskinesias

Sinemet CR Carbidopa/Levodopa: Formulations Sinemet IR Rytary Parcopa

~2 to 2.5 hours increased sustained concentration compared to sinemet IR ~60 minutes increased sustained concentration compared to sinemet IR, impaired bioavilability, lower peak dose, time to peak concentration can be up to 120 minutes longer than sinemet IR Orally disintegrating tablets, not sublingually absorbed, similar time to peak concentration compared to sinemet IR Short half-life (45-90 minutes)

PD Treatment: Medications

Carbidopa/Levodopa: Dosing Guidelines

— Start with sinemet 25/100mg IR: ½ tab three times per day — Increase to sinemet 25/100mg IR: 1 tab three times per day after 2 weeks — Increase to sinemet 25/100mg IR: 1.5 tabs three times per day after 2 weeks — Increase to sinemet 25/100mg IR: 2 tabs three times per day after 2 weeks — Instruct patients to increase the dose of sinemet only if motor

symptoms are not well controlled on the lower dose

— Can ultimately increase the dose up to 3.5 tabs per dose, if needed — No maximum total daily dose, based on need and tolerance — Advanced PD patients may take sinemet every 90 minutes

Ideal Candidate for DBS

  • Parkinson’s disease for at least 5 years
  • Robust improvement in motor symptoms with dopaminergic therapy
  • Consider as soon as motor symptoms are no longer easily managed with

medications alone

  • Freezing of gait and postural instability should not be the primary symptoms
  • Good social support
  • Ability to comply with complex life-long therapy
  • Reasonable expectations for the surgery
  • No medical contraindications for surgery
  • No untreated severe psychiatric disease
  • No dementia (PD-MCI can still be considered for unilateral, staged surgery)

Langston, 2006, Ann Neurol Weintraub et al. 2004, J Am Geriatr Soc.; Shulman et al., 2002, Parkinsonism and Related Disorders;

— Most motor symptoms (fluctuations

and dyskinesias) can be treated with advanced surgical therapies, but freezing of gait and imbalance are usually refractory

— Most PD patients report an

average of 8 non-motor symptoms

— Non-motor symptoms are often: — under-recognized and unseen — more difficult to treat — impair quality of life more than

motor symptoms

— have a greater impact on care-

partner strain than motor symptoms

Motor symptoms are just the tip of the iceberg

PARKINSON’S DISEASE SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT

Constipation Pharmacological Treatments

  • First line: miralax 1-4 times daily and senna daily (up to 4 tablets twice daily)
  • Second line: can add lubiprostone or linactolide
  • If no BM in 3-5 days: dulcolax suppository +/- enema (short-term use only)
  • If no BM in >7 days: magnesium citrate 150-300mg followed by 250ml of water (short-term use only)

Miyasaki, 2013; Curr Neurol Neurosci Rep

PARKINSON’S DISEASE SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT

Dysphagia Non-pharmacological Treatments

  • All meals should be given when the person is alert & sitting upright at 90 degrees
  • Use a chin-tuck position when swallowing
  • Small bites of food, chew thoroughly [slow intake rate, “put your fork or spoon

down between mouthfuls”]

  • “Mindful eating” [reduce distractions while eating]
  • Alternate between one bite of food and one sip of liquid
  • Make sure all food is cleared from the mouth before another bite or sip is taken.
  • Double swallow and clear throat every 2-3 bites
  • Avoid dry foods and nuts as dysphagia worsens
  • Adding sauces to food can help with swallowing safely
  • Upright position recommended for 30-45 minutes after a meal
  • Consider brushing teeth after meals
  • Eventually, mincing or pureeing food becomes necessary

Suttrup and Warnecke, 2017, Dysphagia

PARKINSON’S DISEASE SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT

Speech Language Pathology Evaluation

  • To assess severity of dysphagia and rule out other causes
  • Recommend additional behavioral interventions
  • Recommend swallowing rehab exercises (e.g. expiratory muscle strength training)
  • Assess for the Provale cup, the Nosey cup, or the Safe straw
  • We do not support thickening liquids (not palatable, can lead to dehydration)
  • Carbonated thin liquids can reduce aspiration
  • In the setting of severe dysphagia, we typically do not generally recommend a

percutaneous gastrostomy (PEG) tube, since this symptom is a sign of the disease being at end-stage, with dementia, psychosis and chair/bed-bound status. A PEG in advanced dementia has not been shown to improve survival. Dysphagia

Suttrup and Warnecke, 2017, Dysphagia

PARKINSON’S DISEASE SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT

Pharmacological Treatments

  • Rectal Levodopa and rotigotine patch can be considered in the short-term when

patients are unable to swallow due to concurrent illness (e.g. delirium in the setting

  • f sepsis). See the reference below for instructions on formulating rectal levodopa

from oral levodopa. The rotigotine patch may worsen delirium and is contraindicated in those with advanced PD.

  • Parcopa is a dissolvable form of carbidopa/levodopa that is indicated in the setting
  • f dysphagia

  • Sit-up and Stand-up slowly
  • Exercises to activate calf muscles prior to standing up (e.g. repetitive foot raises, leg crossing)
  • Abdominal compression bands (more comfortable than compression stockings)
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to hot weather
  • Eat small low-carbohydrate meals
  • For acute symptomatic events: counsel patients tie sit down & drink 16 ounces as a bolus

Orthostatic hypotension

PARKINSON’S DISEASE SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT

Miyasaki, 2013; Curr Neurol Neurosci Rep

and then urinate before going to sleep

  • Elevate head of the bed (7-10 inch wedge)
  • Limit liquids after 6pm
  • Condom catheter overnight may improve sleep maintenance
