El deterioro cognitivo en los pacientes con Alzheimer es progresivo y crea una angustia psicológica significativa y alteraciones del comportamiento. Esta combinación a menudo crea serios desafíos para los cuidadores. El grado de los síntomas asociados y el nivel de alteración de la vida familiar, así como la seguridad del paciente, pueden impulsar decisiones sobre cuidados a largo plazo.
N.H. Praderio, MD describirá los problemas de comportamiento más comunes asociados con la enfermedad de Alzheimer, incluida la agitación, la agresión verbal (obscenidades, acusaciones, etc.) y la agresión física (caminar, morder, golpear), deambular, acaparamiento, alteraciones del sueño, inhibición sexual, alucinaciones y otros. También discutirá varias intervenciones para controlar estos síntomas. La sesión concluirá con un período de preguntas y respuestas.
