Dementia Prevention Program
Dementia is a syndrome characterized by mental decline, degeneration, and ultimately dementia, i.e., a retrogression from a certain cognitive and intellectual level. It is caused by the progression of a serious brain disease that impairs memory, thinking, orientation, understanding, recognition and calculation skills, thus changing both personality and behavior. Dementia typically affects people over 60 years of age, but it can occur at a younger age. The main risk factor for dementia is old age, but certain chronic diseases – such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, kidney failure, obesity and other metabolic and hormonal diseases – can increase the likelihood of developing dementia, however the development of dementia is also closely linked to lifestyle.
To whom do we recommend our Dementia Prevention Program?
- Anyone who is concerned about their mental/intellectual state and/or has high risk factors for developing dementia.
- Those who have one or both parents or any close relative with memory problems/dementia.
What tests does the Dementia Prevention Program include?
- Complete internal medical history and physical examination, including ECG
- Detailed assessment of mental and memory functions
- Extensive laboratory testing of blood and urine, including the new, Alzheimer's disease-specific Amyloid-beta test
- Specialized contrast-free brain MRI scan
- Detailed neurological examination, including ultrasound of the carotid arteries
- In-person internal medicine evaluation including a summary discussion of the results and the prevention plan.
