Mixed Dementia
Mixed dementia refers to a decline in mental abilities caused by more than one process at once, frequently the combination of degenerative changes in the brain and disturbances in its blood circulation.
How does it show up? One may notice progressive forgetfulness, difficulty planning or concentrating, disorientation and changes in mood or behavior. The mix of causes makes the picture vary from one person to another.
Associated factors: Advanced age, high blood pressure and vascular problems are among the elements linked to its appearance.
Which specialist treats it? The geriatrician is the professional who assesses memory and mental functioning in older adults and coordinates comprehensive follow-up. If you notice worsening forgetfulness in an older adult relative, it's worth seeking that evaluation in time.
