Mild Alzheimer's disease, memory loss, beginning with the slow deterioration. Because many elderly people can not find their glasses, or remember the name of another person and they are concerned that Alzheimer's disease.
* This is a very common problem, most often due to the much less serious condition and age are associated with slowing of mental processes.
* Training health care professionals an old forgetfulness, age-related memory loss, cognitive impairment, or at least a few cases to call.
* These conditions are bothering you, they're fairly new to the person's ability, problem solving, or Alzheimer's disease to learn to perform everyday activities is not damaged.
Early signs of Alzheimer's disease in memory of the following issues will include:
* Simplicity (just) not forgetting a name to recognize familiar people or things
* Problems of recent events or activities that you remember
* Inability to solve simple math problems
* Familiar with the problem of finding the right words
* Difficulty performing familiar tasks
Likewise, the disease, however, becoming more severe symptoms progress. They may include the following:
* Dead without the help of everyday activities, often called activities of daily life do - beach, dressing, beauty care, feeding, toileting
Think clearly or to resolve problems * dead
* Difficult to understand or learn new information
* Communication issues - speaking, reading, writing
* Height in familiar surroundings in confusion and chaos
Falls and accidents * more dangerous due to the confused and confusing
In later stages of the disease symptoms of severe and fatal:
- Long-term memory - * complete loss of short-term close relatives and friends may not be recognized
* Activities of daily life in complete dependence on others for
* Severe confusion - as far away from home, 5 away
* Changes in behavior or personality -, hostile, anxious or aggressive can be
* Loss of mobility - you can not walk or move from place to place without assistance
The same nutrition - increased risk, asphyxiation, swallowing and other movements mean * Interference () food and drink, saliva, or mucus in the lungs inhale
These symptoms are typically a period of 2 years can develop. Disease as other people go different speeds.
Emotional problems such as depression and anxiety that is common in older people. These issues are of elderly people feeling confused or forgetful, you can leave. These emotional problems can be reversed if a lot of people, those with Alzheimer's disease and other brain diseases is important to distinguish.
You will be treated to
Part of the normal aging process is slowed thinking. However, thought, memory, reasoning, attention to the slightest changes, beauty, behavior, or those who take care of themselves or their abilities, health and safety, or interfere with maintenance activities involved in the nature of the warrant, he or she enjoys visiting who provide health care.
Early diagnosis is important to treat the disease before symptoms begin to provide the best opportunity you can. Early diagnosis of an affected person has a plan, while allowing activities that he or she can still participate in decisions about treatment are ready.
Testing and Inspection
1 primary health care providers to diagnose and treat Alzheimer's disease can be done. Some health care providers in three people (gerontologists) or brain (neurologist and psychiatrist) specializes in the problems. You or your relatives suggest that the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, we recommend you consult a professional.
When health care providers for the elderly, Alzheimer's disease, he or she probably suspected that one or more cognitive problems do. However, many other conditions can cause dementia or Alzheimer's - the old man's symptoms, both medical and psychological problems, including the right. Most of these conditions, or vice versa can be stopped or slowed the least. Therefore, it is very important to cure symptoms, conditions, people can identify with thoroughly excluded.
Alzheimer's disease the only way to confirm the diagnosis and reporting directly to the brain plaques and neurofibrillary tangles dote is to identify. The autopsy will be on stage after the death of the person. The diagnosis of a living person symptoms typically made based on the exclusion of other conditions. This medical interview, by a combination of physical and mental, and other test examination, laboratory tests, imaging studies are performed.
Including medical interviews, and more detailed questions about symptoms, how long they have been changed. Your health care provider will ask about medical issues and now in the past, family, medical problems, medications, workplace travel history, habits, and life.
Detailed physical examination can lead to dementia in a medical problem, rules are made. Mental state assessment tests that must be included. To answer questions about the autopsy and follow simple instructions. In some cases, health care providers who refer for neuropsychological testing.
Neuropsychological testing
Neuropsychological testing to determine who exactly is the problem and is the most accurate method of documenting the benefits.
* This issue may give a more accurate diagnosis and treatment plan can help to help.
* Test questions and answers for this purpose had been carefully prepared to perform a task are related. It is performed by a professional neuropsychologist named.
* It's a personal appearance, mood, anxiety level and the experience of delusions and hallucinations can be resolved.
* It's memory, attention, time and place, the language regarding the use of cognitive abilities such as orientation, assessment, and the ability to perform various tasks, and follow the instructions.
* Rational, abstract thinking, and problem-solving is a test.
Lab Test
These infections are excluded, such as blood, blood disorders, chemical, or more, hormonal disorders, liver or kidney problems can cause symptoms of dementia.
Imaging studies
Brain scans can not detect Alzheimer's disease. In general, such as stroke, brain and cause dementia can also rule out other conditions required to scan.
* MRI or CT of the brain taken a different brain scan to rule out conditions can be done.
* Single-photon emission computed tomography () scans in some cases, the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, SPECT is particularly doubtful. Less common causes of dementia, especially the better detection certain.
Other tests:
Every Alzheimer's can be ordered as part of the test results of these tests.
* Electroencephalography (EEG) to measure brain's electrical activity. In some cases, it is useful to rule out other conditions can.
* Apolipoproteins and sometimes genetic testing for Alzheimer's disease risk, but it's a little research on the use of the individual patient's diagnosis to determine if any value. Other genetic tests are not completed on a regular basis.
* Spinal cord (lumbar) to obtain samples of cerebrospinal fluid is water. This can cause dementia and other brain-specific conditions may be excluded
* This is a very common problem, most often due to the much less serious condition and age are associated with slowing of mental processes.
* Training health care professionals an old forgetfulness, age-related memory loss, cognitive impairment, or at least a few cases to call.
