Why Management Matters
Why is Dementia · Parkinson's Disease
management important?
Integrated management from the early stages is very important.
Dementia and Parkinson's disease are not merely problems of memory or movement, but conditions involving complex decline in brain function, nervous system, autonomic nervous system, and systemic functions.
- · Slowly progressive chronic neurological disease
- · Starts with small daily changes in the early stages
- · Quality of life varies greatly depending on early management
- · Often has limitations with drug treatment alone
Causes & Mechanism
Causes and Main Mechanisms
Both conditions require integrated management of brain + nervous system + systemic functions.
Dementia
Dementia
The main causes are reduced brain nerve cell function and accumulation of protein plaques in the brain.
Dementia
Dementia
· Reduced cerebral blood flow and brain nerve cell dysfunction
· Chronic inflammation and metabolic abnormalities
· Aging, stress, lifestyle factors
· Accompanied by depression, insomnia, and autonomic nervous system imbalance
Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's Disease
It occurs due to dopamine nerve cell dysfunction and basal ganglia dysfunction in the brain.
Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's Disease
· Tremors, rigidity, slowed movement
· Unstable gait, abnormal posture
· Accompanied by sleep disorders, depression, and autonomic nervous system symptoms
