Alzheimer\u2019s disease affects 5.7 million people in the United States. This disease is so prevalent among seniors that someone in the U.S. develops Alzheimer\u2019s disease every 65 seconds. Even more startling is that one in three seniors dies with Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Alzheimer\u2019s disease makes up approximately 70 percent of dementia-related cases.<\/p>\n

\"Memory-Care-West-Palm-Beach-FL\"It\u2019s a given that Alzheimer\u2019s disease is a stealthy, predominant killer. Dementia, as a condition, is in some aspects, similar to Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Technically, however, clear distinctions exist between the condition and the disease. People often confuse dementia with Alzheimer\u2019s disease or vice versa. The misperception is no surprise, since Alzheimer\u2019s disease falls under the umbrella term commonly known as dementia.<\/p>\n

The easiest way to differentiate dementia from Alzheimer\u2019s disease is to liken dementia to a common cold. Any number of virus strains or allergies may have caused the cold. Although the symptoms of the cold are clearly present, the exact cause of the symptoms may not always be known\u2014so too with dementia. Alzheimer\u2019s, in contrast, displays particular, identifiable indicators of the disease. Regardless of what form of dementia someone suffers from, receiving memory care<\/a><\/strong> in their home can help immensely.<\/p>\n

Syndrome vs. Disease<\/h2>\n

Dementia is considered a syndrome, not a full-fledged disease, like Alzheimer\u2019s. Without a diagnosis, dementia cannot be classified as a disease. Rather, a group of symptoms more readily defines the condition known as dementia. A person with dementia, for instance, suffers from symptoms that affect memory and reasoning. Cognitive decline is usually present in persons with dementia.<\/p>\n

Alzheimer\u2019s is a specific disease of the brain that progressively attacks mental functions, like memory and cognition. Brain cell connections are lost, and, in severe instances, brain shrinkage occurs due to the disease\u2019s unflinching grip. The resulting cognitive impairment leads to death within a few years.<\/p>\n

Overlapping Symptoms<\/h2>\n

Alzheimer\u2019s disease and dementia are closely linked and spur similar symptoms in affected individuals. In fact, symptoms can overlap.<\/p>\n

In both dementia and Alzheimer\u2019s disease, the sufferer experiences impairments in memory, thinking and communication. Lewy body dementia is a type of dementia that causes hallucinations, problems with balance and troubled sleeping.<\/p>\n

People with Alzheimer\u2019s disease display very specific symptoms. These include changes in behavior, challenges with recalling events, people or conversations, impairments in judgment, difficulty swallowing, speaking or walking and depression.<\/p>\n

Despite the similarity in symptoms, medical professionals can provide an accurate diagnosis when certain symptoms are either excluded or present.<\/p>\n

Known vs. Unknown Causes<\/h2>\n

Dementia occurs as people progress in years. Older people whose brain cells are damaged are likely to experience dementia. In daily life, billions of brain cells communicate with each other through electrical signals. The back and forth communication between brain cells relies on oxygen and nutrients. When oxygen- or nutrient-deprived brain cells die, the nerve cells do not regenerate. As too many critical components\u2014nerve cells\u2014in our brains perish, cognitive functions decline and an unwelcome case of dementia emerges.<\/p>\n

When nerve cells die in certain parts of the brain, consequences occur. The hippocampus, which is responsible for memory, often takes the first hit. Alzheimer\u2019s disease results when this part of the brain undergoes nerve cell deaths.<\/p>\n

Dementia may also be caused by other diseases. Stroke, depression, HIV and a chronic drug habit can provoke the onset of dementia. Parkinson\u2019s and Huntington\u2019s diseases can also spur dementia. Alzheimer\u2019s, being a degenerative disease, is also a trigger for dementia.<\/p>\n

No one knows specifically what causes Alzheimer\u2019s disease, however. Plus, Alzheimer\u2019s disease can only be precisely diagnosed when the affected individual undergoes an autopsy after death. The diseased brain must be examined under a microscope in order to diagnose the disease. Physicians often (about 90 percent of the time) accurately diagnose Alzheimer\u2019s disease while the sufferer is alive.<\/p>\n

Cure vs. Management<\/h2>\n

\"Alzheimers-Dementia-Care-West-Palm-FL\"<\/p>\n

Dementia can be treated, but most often the condition is irreversible (few dementias are reversible). Dementias caused by vitamin deficiencies or medication interactions, for example, may be temporary or reversible. The type of treatment prescribed depends on what caused the dementia. People positively respond to treatment when dementia occurs due to drugs, hypoglycemia or tumors.<\/p>\n

Alzheimer\u2019s disease has no known cure. Symptoms of the disease can be managed by medications. Physicians prescribe medications to alleviate sleep disturbances, depression and behavioral changes. Medicines also help with memory loss. Individuals afflicted with Alzheimer\u2019s may resort to alternative medicinal remedies, like coconut oil and fish oil, to improve brain function and general health.<\/p>\n

Lifespan<\/h2>\n

The lifespan of people with dementia is determined by the cause of the dementia. Vascular dementia, for instance, may be slowed down with proper treatment, but the condition adversely affects the sufferer\u2019s longevity.<\/p>\n

Alzheimer\u2019s disease, being a terminal illness, significantly reduces the affected person\u2019s quality of life and lifespan. Once a person is diagnosed with Alzheimer\u2019s, his or her lifespan can be expected to extend about four to eight years. Seldom, people with the disease can survive for up to 20 years after receiving the diagnoses.<\/p>\n

Whether your loved one suffers from dementia or Alzheimer\u2019s disease, compassionate care is a necessity. Leaving a senior afflicted with dementia alone at home is a risky scenario. Professional caregivers who are trained in dementia care<\/strong><\/a> or Alzheimer\u2019s care<\/strong> are an invaluable support. A caregiver can be hired to provide constant monitoring and offer help with the activities of daily living. Caregivers are especially critical when families cannot be with their aging loved one 24 hours a day.<\/p>\n
