King\u2019s Advanced Parkinson’s Research Centre<\/strong><\/h1>\n

King\u2019s Advanced Parkinson Research Centre in Dubai is directly linked with the King\u2019 Parkinson\u2019s Centre of Excellence in London.<\/p>\n

Parkinson\u2019s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects a part of the brain known as the \u2018substantia nigra\u2019<\/em>, which produces a brain chemical known as dopamine that is important for controlling movement. The disease, which progresses gradually and gets worse over time, leads to stiffness, difficulty walking, shaking or tremors, trouble with coordination and balance.<\/p>\n

Parkinson\u2019s Disease Treatment<\/h2>\n

Although there is no cure for Parkinson\u2019s Disease, there are ways that the symptoms can be treated or managed. Experts in the field consider management of advanced Parkinson\u2019s Disease to be a complex affair. This is because as the disease gradually progresses, the patient is usually put on a cocktail of oral medications, sometimes up to 20 tablets a day or more.<\/p>\n

Although these oral medications may be somewhat effective in managing the Parkinson\u2019s Disease symptoms, sometimes the side effects include delayed gastric emptying (the time that takes food to move from the stomach to the small intestine), poor gastric absorption (absorption of liquids and salts through the gastric mucosa), which can lead to medication overload, hence causing severe intestinal obstruction, and possibly life threatening Aspiration Pneumonia.<\/p>\n

King’s Dubai brings the latest treatments such as non-oral and device aided therapies for advanced Parkinson\u2019s, (including Stage 5), from London to the UAE.<\/p>\n
