Don't Wait For The 'Last Resort': AIIMS Experts Urge Earlier Deep Brain Stimulation Referral For Parkinson's
Despite clear clinical guidelines, many Parkinson's disease patients in India are being referred too late for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), reducing the potential benefits of the procedure, AIIMS experts said. DBS, a well-established surgical therapy for Parkinson's, is recommended for carefully selected patients who respond poorly to levodopa, ...
