Hope for brain surgery pacemaker

Brain surgery to treat Parkinson's disease is more effective than medication alone and the study found. More than 300 patients in the United Kingdom with electrodes that provide the electricity supply in the depth of the brain. This technique known as deep brain stimulation activates brain areas that control movement and improve symptoms such as tremors and stiffness. One person in every 500 and Parkinson's but that is typically used for surgery except as a last resort. Deep brain stimulation involves implanting wires with electrodes at its tip, in one of three areas in the brain. Wire is connected to the neurostimulator "small" unit and not like a pacemaker which grow under the skin of the chest. This unit sends electrical pulses along the wires to the brain.
Motives block electrical signals that cause the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. There is no cure
The team won the United Kingdom of 366 patients who received either surgery treatment and medication alone. When follow-up after a year, and researchers based in Birmingham Bristol Liverpool, London and Oxford I found who underwent surgery reported better quality of life.
The researchers wrote in the Lancet medical journal say that surgery is an important option for treating patients who suffer from Parkinson's disease. Professor Keith Wheatley at the University of Birmingham told the BBC: It's not a cure. What it does is help control symptoms more than medication alone. In the 10-year study, funded by the UK Parkinson's charity the Medical Research Council and the Ministry of Health, said to be the biggest trial of its kind in the world. (Patchy)

He said that surgery should be made available to the people who need them when they need it.
There is still Postcode lottery in the United Kingdom when it comes to access to services Parkinson's, he said.
We want to make sure that everyone with Parkinson's disease and equality in access to care and support they need wherever they are. Have been diagnosed with Bob Garland aged 65, from Plymouth with Parkinson's disease 18 years ago. He had surgery at Frenchay Hospital in Bristol in 2002.

And encouraged others to get an opinion on whether the process was appropriate for them.
You have to go into it with an attitude is very positive, he said.
