Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that significantly impacts memory and cognitive functions, accounting for 60-80% of dementia cases, with early diagnosis being crucial yet challenging. It involves brain changes like beta-amyloid plaques and tau tangles, influenced by genetic and lifestyle factors, and while there is no cure, symptom management and support for caregivers are essential.
Dementia, influenced by aging and certain medications, may be exacerbated by drug classes such as anticholinergics, benzodiazepines, and antipsychotics, which are associated with cognitive impairment. Regular medication reviews by healthcare professionals are crucial for older adults to manage risks and optimize cognitive health.
Dementia often results in disrupted sleep patterns, leading to excessive daytime sleeping due to factors like brain damage affecting circadian rhythms, medication side effects, and lack of structure in daily activities. Caregivers must monitor these changes closely, as oversleeping can increase risks such as malnutrition or dehydration, and provide necessary support and routines to enhance patient engagement and well-being.
