Guidelines for integrative treatment of Parkinson disease
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 6
Abstract
During the last decade, the use of traditional medicine has expanded globally and has gained popularity. It has not only continued to be used for primary health care of the poor in developing countries, but has also been used in countries where conventional medicine is predominant in the national health care system. The aim of our research was to develop a model to evaluate the effect of TM. Material and method: We chose one disease, where the AM is used in a high percentage worldwide. We have analyzed Parkinson disease (PD) because 56% of patients use AM. The second step was to find all methods of AM that are used for the treatment of symptoms. The third step was to find measurable instruments to evaluate effects of AM, and the last step, to see the discussion about effects from other studies published in last five years. Results: We have found that some scores and scale, which are used in conventional medicine for assessment of PD have been used in AM treatments. We are looking for a physiological explanation of effects, as well. Discussion: In consulting studies, the model of science presentation of effects were similar. In each study, we have been explaining the symptom, as well as the high impact on the quality of life. Method of application, evaluation and scale for scoring, have been analyzed, too. Conclusion: Before we support or reject the effects of AM, we must analyze it by using conventional measurable instruments.
