What is Dementia?
Dementia is a deterioration in cognitive abilities, such as remembering, thinking, and problem-solving, that interferes with day-to-day functioning. Instead of a single disease, it is a syndrome caused by several distinct brain disorders. Symptoms of dementia include:
- Loss of memory
- Bewilderment and disorientation
- Communication difficulties
- Judgement and decision-making compromise
- Personality and behavior changes
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia; however, there are others. Other types include dementia with vascular involvement, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia, among others. Given that dementia can progress over time, early diagnosis and treatment can improve symptom management.
What is Alzheimer’s Disease?
Alzheimer’s disorder is a degenerative brain illness that causes cognitive impairment, memory loss, and aberrant behavior. It is the most prevalent kind of dementia, which makes up 60–80% of cases.
- Difficulties in recalling recent events or conversations
- Difficulty recognizing familiar faces and places
- Repetitive speech or actions
- Personality and mood changes
- Struggle to accomplish daily activities
Alzheimer’s disease has no cure. However, therapies can help control symptoms and enhance life quality. Early diagnosis and appropriate care are vital in slowing the progression of the disease and having the best possible care.
