In this case, dementia can be confirmed through a diagnostic test.
Dementia is a simple forgetfulness disorder, in which brain damage occurs due to a cause, and cognitive ability decreases as daily life becomes difficult. It is divided into Alzheimer’s, which is senile dementia, and vascular dementia depending on the cause. Alzheimer’s disease, which accounts for more than 60% of all dementia, is a degenerative neurological disease in which proteins accumulate in the brain and nerve cells in the brain gradually die.
In most cases, it occurs at the age of 65 or older, and rarely occurs before that. Vascular dementia accounts for about 30% of the total, and it is a disease caused by dementia due to cerebrovascular disease. Such cases usually tend to appear when there are diseases that cause stroke, such as high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, diabetes and heart disease.

Early symptoms of dementia include decreased memory and concentration, changes in personality and emotions, and decreased judgment.
It may not be taken seriously because it can be a symptom that is not dementia, but if a person with dementia is suspected through a diagnostic test, it is desirable to visit the hospital for an examination. One of the common symptoms is memory impairment, which seems to be completely unremembered compared to forgetful symptoms that recognize that they have forgotten. At first, short-term memory becomes difficult and long-term memory gradually forgets. People with dementia can check it on diagnostic tests, but they also have language problems and cannot remember simple words.
As your comprehension skills gradually deteriorate, problems arise such as repeating what you hear or repeating the same sound. Also, if you lose your sense of direction, you may get lost in a strange place, but if dementia progresses, you may get lost in a place you know well. Problem-solving and situational judgment tend to deteriorate. Emotional conditions become unstable, emotional ups and downs are severe in trivial matters, and depression and insomnia can occur together.
Sometimes, dementia is considered an incurable disease, but it can be overcome by clearly diagnosing it in the early stages and taking appropriate drugs.
Therefore, it is important for people with dementia not to miss the treatment period while checking the diagnostic test by themselves. Accordingly, if symptoms of dementia are suspected, visit the hospital for diagnosis and treatment. If a person with dementia falls under more than 6 out of 15 items in the diagnostic test, it is recommended to take action as soon as possible because they may suspect dementia.
