Parkinson's disease is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome. Parkinson's disease in older persons presents with a diverse array of clinical manifestations leading to unique care needs. This raises the need for the healthcare community to proactively address the care needs of older persons with Parkinson's disease. Though it is tempting to categorise different phenotypes of Parkinson's disease, a strong evidence based for the same is lacking. There is considerable literature describing the varying clinical manifestations in old age. This article aims to review the literature looking for strategies in personalising the management of an older person with Parkinson's disease.
帕金森病是一种异质性临床综合征。老年帕金森病患者表现出多种多样的临床表现,从而产生独特的护理需求。这就使得医疗保健界有必要积极应对老年帕金森病患者的护理需求。尽管对帕金森病的不同表型进行分类很诱人,但缺乏基于此的有力证据。有大量文献描述了老年患者的不同临床表现。本文旨在回顾相关文献,寻找针对老年帕金森病患者进行个性化管理的策略。
