Cara Mencegah Demensia dengan Intervensi Multidomain

Oleh :

dr. Irwan Supriyanto PhD SpKJ

Pencegahan primer melalui intervensi multidomain merupakan tata laksana yang paling efektif karena hingga saat ini belum ada modalitas terapi untuk penurunan fungsi kognitif maupun dementia yang bersifat kuratif. Strategi ini menjadi krusial dalam upaya mempertahankan kualitas hidup pasien sebelum kerusakan otak menjadi ireversibel.

Seiring bertambahnya usia, manusia akan mengalami penurunan fungsi kognitif, beberapa memiliki derajat penurunan yang berat atau disebut sebagai dementia. Dementia bisa timbul akibat proses vaskular (dementia vaskular), proses degeneratif (dementia Alzheimer), atau penyebab lain.

Penurunan fungsi kognitif sangat luas dampaknya, baik bagi pasien maupun caregiver. Hendaya yang timbul akibat penurunan fungsi kognitif dapat menurunkan kualitas hidup, menyebabkan berbagai gangguan mental, dan memperburuk gangguan fisik yang sudah ada.
