“…Furthermore, these interventions have also improved stress, mood, well-being, sleep, and the quality of life in adults with subjective cognitive impairment (SCI), MCI, or AD. Significant improvements in anxiety and depression were also observed, and in all these cases, the physical and cognitive benefits were sustained [ 173 , 186 , 187 , 188 , 189 , 190 , 191 , 192 ].…”

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a multifactorial, progressive, neurodegenerative disease typically characterized by memory loss, personality changes, and a decline in overall cognitive function. Usually manifesting in individuals over the age of 60, this is the most prevalent type of dementia and remains the fifth leading cause of death among Americans aged 65 and older. While the development of effective treatment and prevention for AD is a major healthcare goal, unfortunately, therapeutic approaches to date have yet to find a treatment plan that produces long-term cognitive improvement. Drugs that may be able to slow down the progression rate of AD are being introduced to the market; however, there has been no previous solution for preventing or reversing the disease-associated cognitive decline. Recent studies have identified several factors that contribute to the progression and severity of the disease: diet, lifestyle, stress, sleep, nutrient deficiencies, mental health, socialization, and toxins. Thus, increasing evidence supports dietary and other lifestyle changes as potentially effective ways to prevent, slow, or reverse AD progression. Studies also have demonstrated that a personalized, multi-therapeutic approach is needed to improve metabolic abnormalities and AD-associated cognitive decline. These studies suggest the effects of abnormalities, such as insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, hypovitaminosis D, hormonal deficiencies, and hyperhomocysteinemia, in the AD process. Therefore a personalized, multi-therapeutic program based on an individual’s genetics and biochemistry may be preferable over a single-drug/mono-therapeutic approach. This article reviews these multi-therapeutic strategies that identify and attenuate all the risk factors specific to each affected individual. This article systematically reviews studies that have incorporated multiple strategies that target numerous factors simultaneously to reverse or treat cognitive decline. We included high-quality clinical trials and observational studies that focused on the cognitive effects of programs comprising lifestyle, physical, and mental activity, as well as nutritional aspects. Articles from PubMed Central, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases were collected, and abstracts were reviewed for relevance to the subject matter. Epidemiological, pathological, toxicological, genetic, and biochemical studies have all concluded that AD represents a complex network insufficiency. The research studies explored in this manuscript confirm the need for a multifactorial approach to target the various risk factors of AD. A single-drug approach may delay the progression of memory loss but, to date, has not prevented or reversed it. Diet, physical activity, sleep, stress, and environment all contribute to the progression of the disease, and, therefore, a multi-factorial optimization of network support and function offers a rational therapeutic strategy. Thus, a multi-therapeutic program that simultaneously targets multiple factors underlying the AD network may be more effective than a mono-therapeutic approach.

“…Así algunas estrategias que han beneficiado son las adaptaciones del hogar para brindar seguridad y el uso del juego, la pintura y actividades manuales y música; estas últimas enfocadas en la persona que sufre del Alzheimer 1 . Sin lugar a duda, las intervenciones de enfermería más utilizadas son las enfocadas en la educación sanitaria para trabajar con la sobrecarga del cuidado y favorecer la calidad de cuidado y a la vez su integridad, todas centradas en la afección propiamente de EA 4,5 .…”

La enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA) se conforma de un grupo de trastornos de progresión de la memoria principalmente, pero con afecciones en otras funciones cognitivas que llevan a un declive funcional que resta autonomía de forma progresiva en las personas que la padecen. Desde el diagnóstico de Alzheimer en el adulto mayor, el cuidado se ve explícito, iniciando una serie de cambios en la familia, las cuales van desde el asumir un nuevo rol, hasta transiciones emocionales y económicas. El cuidador difícilmente es atendido, la mayoría de las estrategias de cuidado van orientadas en capacitar al cuidador para el cuidado. Existen varias técnicas no farmacológicas como la arteterapia, sin embargo, se orientan en el paciente que padece la enfermedad no en el cuidador. La arteterapia puede ser implementada por el personal de enfermería a fin de potenciar la comunicación y expresión de las emociones de las personas cuidadoras, por ello el objetivo es proponer una intervención de enfermería basada en arteterapia para cuidadores de adultos mayores con Alzheimer.
