[HT-07] Hot Topics 07 Innovative management can bring bright future for Parkinson's disease

Fri. May 21, 2021 8:00 AM - 9:30 AM Room 04 (ICC Kyoto 2F Room A)

Chair：Maeda Tetsuya(Neurology & Gerontology, Iwate Medical University),Hatano Taku(Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine)

Parkinson’s disease and related movement disorders are known as a progressive neurodegenerative disease. The patients with parkinsonism have motor dysfunction, which influences their activity of daily life. However, there has not been disease-modifying therapy and there are many unmet needs for treatment. Thus, a paradigm shift of treatment for neurodegenerative disorders should be needed. In this situation, cybernetics, which is defined as “the science of control and communications in the animal and machine.”, telemedicine and monitoring by wearable devices will be useful for the management of neurological disorders. The aim of this symposium is to understand the up-to-date management for Parkinson’s disease & related movement disorders by using new technologies.
