Abstract
Support for the management of cognitive and autonomic features of Lewy body dementia (LBD) is offered in detail in this presentation. The US Based Diamond Lewy Cognitive Symptoms management document presents the unique cognitive profile of LBD with general principles for addressing these features along with detailed guidance in the use of cholinesterase inhibitors and Memantine. The US Based Diamond Lewy Autonomic Symptoms management document addresses the management of common autonomic symptoms including urinary dysfunction, male sexual dysfunction, excessive sweating, constipation, sialorrhea, gastroparesis and orthostatic hypotension in LBD.
期刊介绍:
Alzheimer's & Dementia is a peer-reviewed journal that aims to bridge knowledge gaps in dementia research by covering the entire spectrum, from basic science to clinical trials to social and behavioral investigations. It provides a platform for rapid communication of new findings and ideas, optimal translation of research into practical applications, increasing knowledge across diverse disciplines for early detection, diagnosis, and intervention, and identifying promising new research directions. In July 2008, Alzheimer's & Dementia was accepted for indexing by MEDLINE, recognizing its scientific merit and contribution to Alzheimer's research.
