Geriatric psychiatry and Dementia
Dementia is the loss of memory and other mental abilities. Up to 7% of adults over the age of 60 suffer from dementia. In addition to memory, language, and decision-making problems, dementia can cause other symptoms. These include mood swings such as increased irritability, depression and anxiety. This includes changes in personality and behavior.
Geriatric psychiatry specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of mental and emotional disorders in older adults. Common disorders in older patients are dementia, depression, anxiety, alcohol abuse, substance abuse, and sleep disorders.
