MILESTONES OF PARKINSON’S DISEASE

STARTING TREATMENT: how to start Advanced PD issues leading to non-oral treatments Psychiatric modifiers Late stage PD: Falls, psychosis, dementia Motor and non-motor fluctuations & dyskinesia

OVERVIEW OF PD TREATMENT

Fluctuation and dyskinesia Stable phase Postural instability Falls

Stage I-II Stage II-III Stage III-IV Stage IV-V

50 55 60 65 70 75 80 years

Infusions Surgery Rehabilitation Complex therapies Medications

Education about disease phases Prevent auto-medication and addiction to DA medications

WHAT IS BEST PRACTICE FOR DBS TREATMENT?

  • Recognition of the advanced phase at the right time
  • Correct Selection of surgical candidates
  • Concomitant management of medication and DBS with novel

programming strategies after surgery

  • Multidisciplinary care from selection to follow-up

SLIDE 6

Symptoms mainly due to disease progression Symptoms due to DA treatment + disease progression Fluctuations and Dyskinesia

  • Motor fluctuations
  • Levodopa-induced dyskinesia
  • ICB, depression, anxiety
  • Psychosis
  • Dysautonomia
  • Sleep disorders
  • Cognitive Impairment

Non-motor symptoms modulate by DA treatment

  • Freezing of gait
  • Falls
  • Speech disturbance
  • Dysphagia
  • Postural abnormalities
  • Gastrointestinal
  • Fatigue and Apathy
  • Cognitive disturbances

ADVANCED PD TREATMENT: GOALS

  • Decrease motor fluctuations ( Off time;  On time)
  • Decrease dyskinesias
  • Avoid or treat psychiatric and behavioral complications
  • Management of non motor symptoms (NMS), especially Non-motor

fluctuations

  •  Dopaminergic daily dose

PRIMARY GOAL: IMPROVING QUALITY OF LIFE

Impaired QOL as subjectively evaluated by the patient is the most important predictor of benefit in PD and early motor complications, fulfilling

  • bjective gold standard inclusion criteria

for STN-DBS. Our results prompt systematically including evaluation

  • f

disease-specific QOL when selecting patients with PD for STN-DBS.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SELECTION FOR DBS

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Absolute selection criteria

Disease Duration > 5 years (> 4 years by Early Stim) Age < 70 years Severe motor complications despite optimal medical treatment Severe disability, poor quality of life Response to Levodopa Absence of major depression Absence of active psychosis Absence of cognitive disturbances

Relative Exclusion criteria

Gait disturbances resistant to levodopa Severe postural instablity (in ON) Single Mild Cognitive impairment

GOOD SELECTION = GOOD OUTCOME!!!

WHAT PATIENT-RELATED FACTORS MAY INFLUENCE THE CHOICE OF THERAPY?

  • Age and duration of disease
  • Cognitive and neuropsychiatric status
  • Medical co-morbidities
  • Non-motor symptoms
  • Presence of dysarthria
  • Presence of gait and balance problems

Few data are available on these issues for all the 3 treatments, mainly for DBS

WHAT MAKES DBS SURGERY UNIQUE?

Reduce dopaminergic daily dose (LEDD) (STN DBS in PD) Treatment may be regulated ASYMMETRICALLY Different targets for different symptoms

GAIT DISTURBANCES AND DBS

WHY PD PEOPLE FALL OFF?

  • Freezing of gait in OFF, asymmetry in gait and posture
  • On-Phase dyskinesia
  • Orthostatic syncope
  • Loss of postural reflexes
  • Severe Executive Dysfunction

AIMING TO BEST PRACTICE IN ADVANCED PD MANAGEMENT WITH DBS

  • Redefining Advanced phase: not delaying treatment
  • Need of better predictors of disease progression at the time of

selection: better selection

  • Need to work on PD people expectations before and after DBS
  • Need to have clear guidelines on how to program DBS based on

prominent symptoms.

  • Need of a pathway for Neurophysiotherapy and SLT for late stage

PD treated with DBS.
