SUMMARY:Depresión en la Tercera Edad
DESCRIPTION:¿Puede la depresión en la tercera edad estar relacionada con el deterioro cognitivo o incluso con la demencia? La depresión en la tercera edad es un problema de salud importante\, en gran medida infradiagnosticado y tratado. Conozca la prevalencia\, los síntomas y los tratamientos para la depresión en la tercera edad\, que puede afectar a los adultos mayores. \nLa depresión en la tercera edad se describe como un episodio depresivo que se presenta por primera vez en una persona de 65 años o más. La depresión en adultos mayores a menudo puede no diagnosticarse ni tratarse debido a otras afecciones médicas preexistentes u otros factores estresantes (pérdida del cónyuge\, aislamiento\, soledad\, etc.). Además\, los síntomas de la depresión pueden no ser fáciles de reconocer. \nLa depresión NO es una parte normal del envejecimiento y\, según la Alianza Nacional de Enfermedades Mentales\, el pronóstico del tratamiento para la depresión es favorable. El Dr. Nestor H. Praderio describirá los factores de riesgo\, los síntomas y los desencadenantes. También explicará el proceso de diagnóstico y las opciones de tratamiento. \n
