摘要:

丘脑底核深部电刺激是公认的治疗中晚期帕金森病的有效方法。术后程控是影响丘脑底核深部电刺激治疗效果的关键因素之一,其中电压被认为是最重要的参数。我们对中山大学第一附属医院进行双侧丘脑底核深部电刺激的6例年龄为37-65岁(4男2女)帕金森病患者进行了回顾性分析,总结术后1,2年单纯调整电压参数帕金森病患者统一帕金森病评定量表第三部分的评分、Hoehn-Yahr分期以及左旋多巴等效剂量。术后2年随访结果显示,当电压脉冲宽度维持在60μs频率为130Hz时,可以改善患者的强直及震颤症状,且临床症状较轻,尤对多参数程控调整出现不能耐受副作用的患者更为适用,术后1,2年时每日左旋多巴等效剂量较基线时大幅度减少。结果显示单纯调整程控电压参数可改善接受脑深部电刺激帕金森病术后患者的强直及震颤症状。该临床试验已在北美临床中心注册,注册号为NCT01934881。

Abstract:

Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus is recognized as the most effective treatment for moderate and advanced Parkinson’s disease. Programming of the stimulation parameters is important for maintaining the efficacy of deep brain stimulation. Voltage is considered to be the most effective programming parameter. The present study is a retrospective analysis of six patients with Parkinson’s disease (four men and two women, aged 37–65 years), who underwent bilateral deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, China, and who subsequently adjusted only the stimulation voltage. We evaluated motor symptom severity using the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale Part III, symptom progression using the Hoehn and Yahr scale, and the levodopa equivalent daily dose, before surgery and 1 and 2 years after surgery. The 2-year follow-up results show that rigidity and tremor improved, and clinical symptoms were reduced, while pulse width was maintained at 60 μs and frequency at 130 Hz. Voltage adjustment alone is particularly suitable for patients who cannot tolerate multiparameter program adjustment. Levodopa equivalent daily dose was markedly reduced 1 and 2 years after surgery compared with baseline. Our results confirm that rigidity, tremor and bradykinesia can be best alleviated by voltage adjustment. The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier: NCT01934881).
