Calidad de vida en pacientes con Demencia tipo Alzheimer

Alzheimer's Dementia is a neurodegenerative disease that produces cognitive and behavioral symptoms that affect the quality of life. The quality of life is the perception that an individual has about their own health. An investigation was carried out whose sample of the study consisted of 50 patients with Alzheimer's Dementia and 60 Subjects without cognitive impairment. The Quality of Life Scale in Alzheimer's Disease- QOL-AD was applied. The results show that patients with Alzheimer's Dementia have a lower overall self-perceived quality of life than subjects without cognitive impairment.
