About Dementia
Dementia is a term often used to describe diseases that affect thinking, memory, and the ability to perform daily tasks. The illness is known to worsen over time, affecting older individuals. Diseases that are part of ‘dementia’ are caused by abnormal changes in the brain. Dementia often causes a decline in cognitive abilities, impairing independent functioning. Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia, accounting for around 60-70% of dementia cases.
Some early signs of dementia are:
- Being unable to remember recent events
- Losing things or misplacing them
- Feeling confused even in familiar spaces
- Difficulties in performing usual tasks
- Misjudging distances or getting lost when walking or driving
- Finding it difficult to make decisions and an inability to find the right words
Changes in behaviour and mood include:
- Personality shifts
- Feeling sad, angry or anxious about the loss of memory
- Disengaging with other people’s emotions
- Acting inappropriately
It is important to note that dementia symptoms differ from person to person, as it affects everyone’s cognitive functioning differently. How it affects a person also depends on the health conditions the person has and the underlying causes of the disease.
With Maarga’s dementia care and treatment in Gurgaon, individual symptoms are identified, and accurate treatment plans are made by our highly skilled team.
Types of Dementia We Treat
Dementia can be caused by various types of diseases. The common types are as follows:
Alzheimer's Disease:
This is a common cause of dementia. Alzheimer's causes damage to the brain, leading to problems with thinking, memory, and the ability to perform everyday tasks.
Dementia With Lewy Bodies (DLB):
Lewy bodies are clumps of protein present in the nerve cells of the brain, which can break connections between nerve cells and can reduce the levels of chemicals required for message transmission. Common symptoms include difficulty focusing, delusions, and issues with movement.
Vascular Dementia:
This is the second most common type of dementia. They result from issues with the blood supply to some parts of the brain. Symptoms typically include confusion and difficulties with planning and concentration.
Young-Onset Dementia:
It refers to the onset of dementia before age 65. It may be an inherited disease and could result in issues with language, behaviour, and vision rather than memory loss.
Mixed Dementia:
This is a common type involving a mix of Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia. However, other combinations are also possible.
Frontotemporal Dementia:
This is a less common type that affects nerve cells in two lobes. It can affect behaviour, personality and language.
Maarga Mind Care offers Alzheimer’s and other dementia treatment in Gurgaon. Our focus is on managing symptoms, enhancing cognitive capabilities and improving a patient’s quality of life.
Types of Dementia Treatments We Provide in Gurgaon
Though there is no cure for dementia, some support can be offered to patients to improve their daily functioning. Some medications that can help manage symptoms are:
- Cholinesterase inhibitors
- Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors can help manage severe depression symptoms if lifestyle changes and social interventions do not work. They are typically not the first treatment option.
- Medication for controlling blood pressure and cholesterol can help in the case of vascular dementia, as they can prevent further damage to the brain.
Some non-pharmacological interventions are based on lifestyle adjustments:
- Frequent check-ups with doctors
- Keeping the mind active and staying physically active.
- Eating well
- Avoiding smoking and alcohol consumption
- Being socially engaged
For dementia care in Gurgaon, Maarga’s team ensures that patients receive medical support, advice, and assistance with lifestyle changes. We evaluate all symptoms and plan treatments and interventions based on their severity.
