Arabic term

وقاية

Homework / test Arabic to English Medical Medical (general) Study about Parkinson's
مرضى باركنسون معرضون لمضاعفات يجب الوقاية منها

I translated as : Parkinson's Patients Exposed to Complications from Which They Need Protection

Might there be a better word than "protection" here (or a better way to phrase this title)?

prevention

If it's a title, you could rearrange the words and say, "Preventable Complications in Patients of Parkinson's Disease".
