As we know, Parkinson 's disease is a globally occurring mental defect that affects human 's central nervous system. Currently, there is no cure for the disease, and we can 't even diagnose the cause of this disease. DBS is still a developing technology being widely employed to fix neuropsychiatric disorders. It is a surgical therapy employed to curb this deadly disorder as well as essential tremor.
The method involves the patients undergoing surgery. This surgery uses some high technology to treat neuropsychiatric disorders for Parkinson 's disease. There are various reasons why deep brain stimulation can be considered the answer to this deadly brain disorder. There has been an observation that most people do reduce medication after undertaking …show more content…
Success in this method of fixing Parkinson 's shows how effective the method is (German Parkinson Study Grp, 2006). It proves an appropriate selection of the patient; that the patient really suffered from Parkinson 's disease and they are compatible with the method, an appropriately selected brain region for stimulation, a well done and perfect positioning of the stimulator and correct and thorough programming and the management of …show more content…
One of the arguments states that there is a small percentage of risk of developing complications after the treatment such as a death of some body parts, thinking changes, seizures, personality and memory, as well as infections (WebMed, 2016).
Rebuttals:
The risk of developing complications after DBS is very low (about two to three percent) and cannot be considered as a way to discourage people from using this method of treatment. What 's more, during the procedure doctors will observe patients ' activity and the change of brain 's activity in order to protect patients from any future occurrence of complications.
Conclusion
Although Parkinson disease is currently not treatable, deep brain stimulation should be considered as the best and most effective method to do away with PD in the near future due to its advantages. It is a very powerful tool that gives hope to many people with Parkinson 's disease for a brighter future. Scientists are working day and night to better Deep Brain Stimulation and ensure that there is an option for every person suffering from this deadly disease. Since over 70% people stop or reduce their medications after the Deep Brain Stimulation, it shows that the DBS is very effective for people with neuropsychiatric disorders. DBS uses high-tech methods to treat patients, and it 's reliable since a few cases have been reported about its failure. It has some side effects that
