Abstract

Growth in the incidence of dementia presents major challenges to global healthcare systems. As the burden of dementia in non-Western cultures grows, developing nations are expected to overtake developed nations in terms of dementia prevalence. Insights from developing nations and transcultural considerations are, nevertheless, neglected in the published literature. Dementia: A Global Approach fills this gap by integrating contemporary cross-cultural knowledge about dementia. Each section reviews the literature from the published, predominantly Western, perspective, contrasting it with empirical knowledge from non-Western cultures. Covering major clinical, epidemiological and scientific areas of interest, detailed consideration is also given to care-giving models across the world and management of patients who have migrated between regions. Enriched with personal insights from clinical experts across the globe, this is a key text for neurologists, geriatricians, psychiatrists, psychologists, epidemiologists and all those responsible for managing provisions of dementia services.

Abstract

The later stages of dementia are as important, if not more so, as the earlier stages, since they harbour unique characteristics and events, which profoundly affect the lives of patients and their carers. Severe dementia has not had a high profile in the clinical literature as until recently prognosis was poor and there were few beneficial interventions. With the recent licensing of memantine, clinicians finally have a drug option that will delay disease progression. Severe Dementia is the first book to focus exclusively on severe dementia. It addresses both the clinical features of the disease and the social aspects of care. Introductory chapters on the differential diagnosis, neurochemistry and molecular pathology of severe dementia set the scene for the clinical discussion. Detailed clinical chapters on cognitive function, depression, physical effects, staging and function follow. All therapeutic interventions are then discussed, including memantine, anticholinesterases, neuroleptics and non-pharmacological treatment. The final chapters review the social and economic aspects of dementia care, including family involvement, person-centered care, palliative care, ethics and health economics. Written and edited by experts in geriatric psychiatry and geriatrics, Severe Dementia is of value to all clinicians involved in the management of this complex and vulnerable group of patients. It is also of interest to general practitioners and carers in nursing homes.

Abstract

In deze aflevering onderzoekt Louis Theroux de toenemende dementie bij Amerikaanse bejaarden. De Amerikaanse generatie van de 'babyboomers' bereikt stilaan de pensioenleeftijd. Ze dromen van een zorgeloze oude dag, fysiek gezond en met ruime financiële middelen. Wat in de tuin werken, golf spelen of genieten van de zon: hun welverdiende beloning voor decennia hard werken. Maar de pijnlijke realiteit is dat de meerderheid van de Amerikaanse senioren getroffen zal worden door dementie of zal moeten zorgen voor een partner die er last van heeft. Louis gaat op bezoek bij de 69-jarige Gary. Hij weet niet meer dat hij getrouwd is met Carla en gelooft dat hij opnieuw in militaire dienst is. Terwijl Carla doet wat ze kan om hun relatie in stand te houden, is Gary zich van geen kwaad bewust wanneer hij avances maakt bij diverse andere vrouwen. De 89-jarige Nancy is een voormalig fotomodel uit New York met een navenante persoonlijkheid. Op vraag van haar echtgenoot John neemt Louis voor een dag de zorg voor Nancy van hem over. Hij heeft er zijn handen mee vol. Maar dementie kan ook vroeger toeslaan. Selinda is 49 en heeft samen met haar familie net vernomen dat ze aan Alzheimer lijdt. Haar negenjarige dochter Caleigh probeert te begrijpen waarom haar moeder anders is dan andere moeders. En echtgenoot Glen moet een aantal moeilijke beslissingen nemen over de toekomst
