Abstract:

Many long-term care residents are diagnosed with dementia, but dementia appears in many forms. Alzheimer's disease, the most common, is typified by a slow onset and relentless progression to complete incapacitation. Vascular dementia usually appears somewhat abruptly, is associated with vascular comorbidities, and has an unpredictable progression pattern. Lewy body dementia shares features of both Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease; its hallmarks include fluctuating cognitive performance, visual hallucinations, and extrapyramidal motor symptoms. Frontotemporal dementias are associated less wi

Abstract:

Treatment of dementia costs billions of dollars in long-term care and community services every year. Dementia also burdens the acute care system and may contribute to financial problems for hospitals serving large numbers of demented elderly. In a specialized geriatric medical unit devoted to acute care of the frail elderly, Alzheimer's disease and vascular and mixed dementias afflicted 63% of inpatients and were associated with excess consumption of nursing resources, complications of treatment, nosocomial infections, lengthy hospitalizations, and financial losses to the hospital.

Abstract:

Dementias are brain diseases that affect long-term cognitive and behavioral functions and cause a decrease in the ability to think and remember that is severe enough to disturb daily functioning. In Spain, the number of people suffering from dementia is rising due to population ageing. Reducing admissions, many of them avoidable, would be advantageous for patients and care-providers. Understanding the correlation of admission of people with dementia and its trends in hospitalization would help us to understand the factors leading to admission.

Abstract:

AbstractTreatment of dementias represents an important but relatively neglected part of neurological care of the elderly population. Individual therapeutic interventions may make only small changes to the quality of life of individuals afflicted with dementia, but when used in combination these interventions synergize and can make a significant difference. Additionally, given the societal scale of the problem of dementia care, the overall impact, in economic and sociological terms, of such therapies is of consequence.

Abstract:

Dementia means persistent deterioration of intellectual and cognitive functions with little or no impairment of consciousness/awareness or perception. There are several types of dementia, but the most common in everyday practice are: Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies (DLT), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), vascular dementia, and dementia due to hydrocephalus. In 10-15% of cases, dementias are reversible because they arose as a clinical manifestation of some other disease that can be treated and cured. This is particularly important for doctors in primary health care, who should reco

Abstract. Dementia is characterized by a decline in memory, language, problem-solving and in other cognitive domains that affect a person’s ability to perform everyday activities and social functioning. It is consistently agreed that cognitive impairment is an important risk factor for developing functional disabilities in patients with dementia. Functional status can be conceptualized as the ability to perform self-care, self- maintenance and physical activity. A person with dementia usually requires help with more complex tasks, such as managing bills and finances, or simply maintaining a ho

The aim of this article is to provide a framework for any clinician involved in the management of patients with dementia.

Abstract:

Abstract Given the growing prevalence of Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias, and the intensity of this population’s care needs, it is imperative that health plans (HPs) increase their dementia-capability. The Dementia Cal MediConnect (Dementia CMC) project proposes an innovative model of health care advocacy that can create dementia-capable systems change. The Dementia CMC project was a partnership (2013 – 2018) between local Alzheimer’s organizations and ten managed care HPs in California. It used the following model of health care advocacy: 1) Identify dementia-capable best practices

Abstract:

Background and Objectives: Dementia affects more than 55 million patients worldwide, with a significant societal, economic, and psychological impact. However, many patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other related dementias have limited access to effective and individualized treatment. Care provision for dementia is often unequal, fragmented, and inefficient. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated telemedicine use, which holds promising potential for addressing this important gap. In this narrative review, we aim to analyze and discuss how telemedicine can improve the quality of healthcare f

Abstract:

Dementia is one of the major causes of disability and dependence amongst older people and previous research has highlighted how the well-being of people with dementia is inherently connected to the quality of their relationships with their informal carers. In turn, these carers can experience significant levels of emotional stress and physical burden from the demands of caring for a family member with dementia, yet their uptake of formal services tends to be lower than in other conditions related to ageing. This paper is based on a qualitative study undertaken in the Australian state of Queens

Abstract:

Globally, dementia affects 47.5 million people, making it a significant health concern. The growing number of people with dementia is posing a challenge to the health care systems. Dementia is a complicated progressive syndrome which is characterized by impairment of cognition, changes in personality leading to impeded daily life activities. Dementia poses burden to patients, their families society and healthcare systems in context of cost and care. People with dementia need intense medical, nursing, psychological, and social support to slow the disease's progression and retain autonomy and so

Abstract:

Dementia is a major cause of dependency and disability among older persons, and imposes huge economic burdens. Only a few cost-of-illness studies for dementia have been carried out in middle and low-income countries. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze costs of dementia in demented patients of a private clinic in Lima, Peru. Methods. We performed a retrospective, cohort, 3-month study by extracting information from medical records of demented patients to assess the use of both healthcare and non-healthcare resources. The total costs of the disease were broken down into direct (medi

Abstract:

This study aimed to elicit and understand the experience of direct care workers involved with dementia patients. Conventional content analysis was used in this study. Fifteen direct care workers, associated with either nursing homes or elderly daycare centers in Korea, were recruited. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted to collect data. All interviews were recorded using digital devices, transcribed, and qualitatively analyzed. Four key areas were identified: (1) confusion due to ignorance and inexperience; (2) difficulties due to personal, familial, and environmental obstacles

Abstract:

Abstract Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) represent an increasingly prevalent group of neurodegenerative chronic diseases for which there is no cure. Progressive functional and cognitive decline in individuals with ADRD places considerable demands on those involved in their care, including clinicians and care partners. Mobile health technology has the potential to support people living with dementia and their care team members, as well as potentially prevent the onset of dementia symptoms. In this symposium we first examine best practices in mhealth application development for
