Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias

A common problem that affects the brain is called dementia or senility. Symptoms of this illness include giving a person difficulty in remembering, learning and communicating. As the illness progresses along the way it  become more hard for a person to take care of himself or herself. 

Dementia has also been known to change a patients mood and personality. First signs of this happening would be is the loss of memory and trouble thinking clearly .Then later disruptive behavior and other problems related  to it will being to appear.

 Dementia is caused by the demolition of brain cells. The more common cause to do this would be a stroke, a brain tumor or  Alzheimer's disease. Other lesser known cause would be Wernicke-Kosakoff Syndrome, Lewy Body disease and Pick's disease. 

Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause for dementia. Almost two-thirds of dementia cases are traced to Alzheimer's disease. There are about 5.2 million people in the United States who have Alzheimer's disease. It is the sixth-leading cause of death. The cost of this disease has already amounted to $148 billion each year from direct and indirect costs to Medicare, Medicaid and businesses. 

Wernicke-Korsaff Syndrome is defined as a deficiency in thiamine or Vitamin B1. It is usually caused by chronic and severe alcoholism. The syndrome can also be caused by other factors such as eating disorders, malnutrition and the effects of chemotherapy. The dementia that is caused by this syndrome will show signs of apathy, confusion, hallucinations, communication problems and severe memory impairment. 

Lewy Body disease is described as deposits of the protein alpha-synuclein inside the brain cells. These deposits would then bother the brain by impairing perception, thinking and behavior. These deposits are called Lewy bodies which is named after the first person who described them in the 1900s, Friedrich H. Levy. 

Pick's disease affects the frontal and temporal sides of the brain and is considered to be the most common of the frontotemporal dementias. It occurs most commonly between the ages of 50 and 60 years old. The disease involves dementias symptoms such as personality changes, deterioration of scoail skills and lack of emotion and empathy.  

As of now, dementia that is brought about by Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease can be treated by Hypebraric oxygen therapy. Other illnesses that Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy treats are not dementia related like the treating of wounds, multiple sclerosis and insomnia.  

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy uses hyperbaric chambers and  pure oxygen to treat its patients The therapy lasts less than hour, it is very safe since it does not involve surgery and is U.S. FDA approved. Hyperbaric chambers are available on selected health centers and hospitals, it is also available for sale and for rent .
