"The first abnormality we found was that she frequently put things wrong place, this kind of forgetfulness in trivial matters last year." Aunt Zhang said, "StartingWe thought that this was just the reason why the elderly were getting older, but more abnormal situations have occurred in the past one or two months. In early December, it was gradually unclear.Melancholy and irritable, even starting to remember people and people who cant distinguish them, you need to remind you to think about it. "
In January, family members found this kind ofThe situation is increasingly uncontrollable, which seriously affects the daily life of Aunt Zhang and her family members, so he took him to Hunan Second Peoples Hospital (Hunan Brain Hospital) physical disease psychiatry womens ward Receive diagnosis and treatment.
The attending doctor Zhang Xunjuan conducted detailed physical examination, blood drawing test and head enhancement CT examination of Aunt Zhang. Combined with the test results and the patients clinical performance, Aunt Zhang was finally diagnosed as diagnosed as Alzheimers disease -a disease of brain degeneration (gradual atrophy) is the main cause of cognitive disease (dementia), commonly known as elderly dementia.
Dr. Zhang Yijuan introduced that Alzheimers disease is a chronic, performed disease, manifested as memory, Sensory skills, sports skills, thinking skills, daily life ability, language ability, social communication, social function and emotional response control, etc., are also a disease -related disease with high probability of illness.
The probability of the 65 -year -old elderly in my country is about 5%; by the age of 85, the probability of disease is as high as 40%.The disease will seriously affect the quality of life of the elderly and is one of the main disabled factors for the elderly.
According to the performance, it can be divided into early, middle, and late stages.The main manifestations of the early stages of dementia are memory loss and forgetfulness. I cant remember what happened in recent days. All the things experienced in the past have been forgotten.Essence
In the middle periodAngry, damage to daily life, etc., the patient Zhang was in the middle of the elderly.
Patients with old age obsessives will have serious memory loss, only the memory of the segment, various abilities have basically disappeared, daily life cannot be taken care of by themselves.Basically, no sound can be made.
Dr. Zhang Yanjuan mentioned that there are many risk factors that lead to , such as brain injury, depression, high blood pressure, lack of exercise and societyInadequate interaction, insufficient education, etc. are likely to promote Alzheimers disease.
Aunt Zhang stays at home all day, rarely communicates with friends, and is in an environment where it is easy to get on.
The prominent problems of the health service sanitation service of Alzheimers disease include: the public has a low awareness rate for Alzheimers dementia, low early consultation rate, low treatment rate, low treatment rate, low treatment rate, low treatment rate, low treatment rate.In addition, there is insufficient knowledge of disease hygiene, and the family members of patients are unwilling to cooperate and do not pay enough attention to dementia.For example, Aunt Zhang and his family members attributed their condition to simple forgetfulness and lack of consciousness of consultation. They came to the hospital for consultation when they really affect life.
The treatment of patients with Alzheimers disease is mainly drug treatment. Usually, they can also conduct daily abilities of elderly dementia patients to improve their daily ability, such as memory, such as memory.Training, intellectual training, directional training, etc.
But there is no way to cure Alzheimers disease in the world, and some drug and behavioral intervention can only delay the development of the disease to a certain extent.Therefore, early prevention, early diagnosis, and early treatment should be prevented, and the burden of dementia caused by dementia to individuals, families and society should be reduced as much as possible.
