Vadivelan M

Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative condition that commonly afflicts the elderly population. It is responsible for high morbidity and disabilities in old age. Understanding the pathophysiology of the disease will help in better management of patients with Parkinsonism. Newer anti-parkinsonian drugs achieve better control of symptoms with fewer side effects. Complications of the disease include hypostatic pneumonia and head injuries due to frequent falls.
