Muchas personas tienen problemas de memoria, lo que no significa necesariamente que padezcan alg\u00fan tipo de demencia o enfermedad de Alzheimer. Existen muchas causas diferentes de problemas de memoria, como deficiencias vitam\u00ednicas o problemas de tiroides. Si usted o un ser querido experimenta s\u00edntomas de p\u00e9rdida de memoria, un evaluaci\u00f3n de la memoria<\/a> Es un excelente punto de partida. El diagn\u00f3stico temprano es clave para planificar el mejor tratamiento y afrontar la demencia.<\/p>\n

S\u00edntomas de demencia<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Cuando escuchamos el t\u00e9rmino "demencia", solemos pensar que se refiere a la enfermedad de Alzheimer, pero no siempre es as\u00ed. Si bien la enfermedad de Alzheimer es el tipo m\u00e1s com\u00fan de demencia, representando entre el 60 y el 801% de los casos, la demencia no es una enfermedad \u00fanica. Demencia es un t\u00e9rmino general que se utiliza para describir un deterioro de la capacidad mental lo suficientemente grave como para interferir con la vida diaria. Las personas con demencia pueden tener problemas con la memoria a corto plazo, como recordar sus llaves o billetera, salir del vecindario, pagar sus comidas y prepararlas. Muchas demencias se consideran progresivas, lo que significa que los s\u00edntomas comienzan lentamente y empeoran con el tiempo.<\/p>\n

\"Help<\/p>\n

Etapas de la demencia<\/strong><\/h2>\n

La demencia se divide en tres etapas principales. La primera, la demencia leve, puede causar tristeza, ansiedad y p\u00e9rdida de inter\u00e9s en actividades que antes disfrutaba. Quiz\u00e1s note que su ser querido tiene dificultad para recordar palabras o nombres y para asimilar informaci\u00f3n nueva. Como familiar o cuidador, es posible que no est\u00e9 seguro de ad\u00f3nde ir ni de c\u00f3mo afrontar el diagn\u00f3stico. En las primeras etapas, es fundamental prepararse para tomar decisiones conjuntas sobre el futuro y su cuidado.<\/p>\n

La demencia moderada es la segunda etapa de la demencia. En esta etapa, la funci\u00f3n f\u00edsica y el juicio se ven afectados. Esto puede ser un gran desaf\u00edo f\u00edsico y emocional para el cuidador. Quienes se encuentran en esta etapa pueden hacer acusaciones a sus seres queridos o mostrarse agresivos en su comportamiento o lenguaje. Es importante recordar que no lo hacen a prop\u00f3sito. Intentar identificar la ra\u00edz del problema y lo que ha desencadenado el comportamiento puede ayudar a prevenir o modificar el resultado en el futuro.<\/p>\n

La tercera etapa es la demencia grave, que puede requerir atenci\u00f3n continua. En esta etapa, quienes la padecen pueden tener dificultades para reconocer a sus seres queridos o cuidadores. Pueden tener movilidad limitada y p\u00e9rdida de control, y requerir ayuda para ir al ba\u00f1o, comer, etc. Este puede ser un momento muy estresante tanto para los seres queridos como para los cuidadores.<\/p>\n

La esperanza en los estudios de investigaci\u00f3n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Dementia<\/p>\n

Si bien lidiar con la demencia puede ser dif\u00edcil, los pr\u00f3ximos estudios de investigaci\u00f3n en el Centro de Investigaci\u00f3n Neuropsiqui\u00e1trica del Suroeste de Florida podr\u00edan ser una opci\u00f3n. Los candidatos que califiquen y participen podr\u00e1n recibir atenci\u00f3n relacionada con el estudio sin costo y acceso a la medicaci\u00f3n del estudio. Tambi\u00e9n podr\u00eda haber compensaci\u00f3n por tiempo y desplazamiento.
