Dementia is a syndrome that is characterized by the progressive deterioration of nerve cells and brain damage caused by various diseases. This deterioration results in a decline in cognitive abilities that exceeds the typical age-related changes. Although consciousness is typically maintained, cognitive impairment is frequently accompanied or preceded by changes in mood, behaviour, or motivation.
The ramifications of dementia extend across physical, psychological, social, and economic dimensions, impacting not only those living with the condition but also their caregivers, families, and society at large.
Manifestations of dementia vary significantly among individuals, influenced by underlying causes, coexisting health issues, and pre-existing cognitive abilities.
Age does represent a significant risk factor, however, dementia isn't an inevitable consequence of aging. Dementia also isn't confined to older populations; young-onset dementia, occurring before age 65, constitutes up to 9% of cases.
While symptom management strategies exist, most forms of dementia lack a cure. Hence, preventing conditions associated with its development becomes paramount in mitigating risk.
