    Study Notes

    Etiological Disorders and Delirium

    • Etiological disorders result from a medical condition and can be diagnosed from patient history, physical examinations, and laboratory findings.
    • Delirium is a sudden disturbance of cognitive ability, more common in the elderly, with specific causes and reversible symptoms such as confusion, reduced awareness, and anxiety.
    • Dementia involves multiple cognitive deficits, primarily memory impairment, and can manifest in various forms including aphasia and apraxia.
    • Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia with gradual onset and irreversible symptoms like memory loss, changes in behavior, and paranoia.
    • Risk factors for Alzheimer's include age, family history, gender, educational status, occupational level, diet, exercise, and stress.
    • Alzheimer's progresses through seven stages, from no symptoms to severe cognitive decline and loss of ability to interact with the environment.
    • Treatments for Alzheimer's include new medications, cholinesterase inhibitors, antipsychotics, anti-anxiety, and antidepressants, as well as nutritional support.
    • Nursing care for Alzheimer's patients involves meeting basic needs, safety, addressing behavior problems, and maintaining a supportive and non-judgmental environment.
    • Sensory perception disturbances in Alzheimer's patients can be addressed through physical adaptations and maintaining a supportive environment.
    • Validation therapy, anxiety, and physical adaptations to stress/anxiety are important considerations in caring for Alzheimer's patients.
    • Anxiety is a state of uneasiness or apprehension in response to a vague, non-specific threat, triggering the fight or flight response.
    • Physical adaptations to stress/anxiety include increased respiratory rate, dilated pupils, and the secretion of adrenaline by the adrenal glands.
