Diagnosis and Management of Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia

Delirium is a common, debilitating, costly, and at times, life- threatening condition. It is reversible and preventable. This presentation will highlight the importance of prevention, assessment, and management of acute confusion in the older adult.

This presentation will provide a review of features that differentiate normal aging, MCI and dementia and office-based cognitive testing that can be used in the assessment.

This presentation will provide a practical approach for gait disorders in the elderly. “Senile gait” disorders are now felt to be early presentation of disease rather than normal aging.
