Alterações de linguagem nas fases iniciais da doença de Alzheimer

Abstract: A doença de Alzheimer (DA) atinge no mínimo 5% da população de indivíduos com mais de 65 anos. Pacientes com DA apresentam alterações cognitivas, de linguagem e de comportamento que se agravam durante o curso da doença. As alterações de memória, no entanto, são as mais referidas pela família e as mais fortemente evidenciadas na avaliação clínica do paciente desde o início da doença. As alterações de fala e de linguagem, apesar de serem freqüentemente notadas, têm sido melhor estudadas nas duas últimas décadas … Show more

“…The results point to the impact of schooling on STADP (p=0.002), on MMSE (p=0.007) and on GDS (p=0.006). Age obtained an equal p=0.000 in both STADP and MMSE, showing a discrepancy in the 60-64 age range compared to 85 years and older, corroborating other studies 12,17,29 , whereas in GDS there was no significance (p=0.770). However, the 75-90 year range showed lower values on STADP and MMSE compared to the 80-84 year range, as did the schooling range of 8-11 years compared to the 5-7 year range, where the largest number of individuals with AD is concentrated.…”

“…Studies on the initial phase of the disease point to deficits in episodic declarative memory and in executive functions, with an impact on daily activities [6][7][8] , causing family distress and increasing the likelihood of institutionalization 9,10 , reinforced by language, comprehension and interpretation difficulties 11,12 . Early diagnosis is a clinical priority aimed at preventive multidisciplinary interventions with appropriate measuring instruments for the sociocultural context.…”

“…The groups have two main objectives: to help the family to better withstand the emotional and occupational overload caused by intensive care and to provide information that favors the care of the family with the patient [25]. In this group, caregivers will be able to exchange experiences and grow mutually, acquiring better understanding of the aging process and its possible implications in their lives and in the elderly's lives through the testimonies of people who are experiencing the same problems, instigating them to create coping strategies to make changes in their way of life, which will make taking care for the elderly with Alzheimer's an easier task [26].…”

“…A autora registra também a ocorrência da institucionalização precoce, bastante frequente, em que pessoas com idade inferior aos sessenta anos encontram-se nas instituições asilares por carecerem de família ou por terem sequelas de Acidente Vascular Cerebral ou suspeita de algum processo demencial em fase inicial (Ortiz, Bertolucci, 2005), e que necessitam de cuidados ou simplesmente de um lugar para viver.…”
