Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is an early dementia or discrete memory loss. The cognitive deficit in MCI impedes people's daily activities, which influences multiple aspects of thinking and acting including attention, reading, writing, reasoning, language, and judgment. This review aims to assess the outcome of various neuropsychological interventions in treating MCI.
MCI causes memory problems and is characterized by the cognitive damage that is disproportionate about individual education background and age.
Post-mortem biopsies performed on 134 patients diagnosed with MCI showed the presence of Alzheimer's disease AD in 54.4% of all the patients, mixed pathologies in 19.4% and gross microscopic infarcts in 39.1% patients. This review was done to assess the outcome of MCI and the various neuropsychological interventions, which are being used in the treatment of MCI. These techniques were studies individually followed by their roles in treating specific cognitive deficits.
The study focused on reviewing the literature for mainly three cognitive rehabilitation strategies: (1) rehearsal-based approaches (2) compensatory techniques (3) mnemonic strategies. In the present review, rehabilitation of language deficits in MCI is also included.
轻度认知障碍 (MCI) 是一种早期痴呆症或离散性记忆丧失。MCI 中的认知缺陷会妨碍人们的日常活动,影响思维和行为的多个方面,包括注意力、阅读、写作、推理、语言和判断。本综述旨在评估各种神经心理干预措施治疗 MCI 的效果。
MCI 导致记忆问题,其特征是认知损伤与个体教育背景和年龄不成比例。
对 134 名被诊断为 MCI 的患者进行的死后活检显示,所有患者中有 54.4%存在阿尔茨海默病 (AD),19.4%存在混合病理,39.1%存在明显的微梗死。本综述旨在评估 MCI 的结果以及用于治疗 MCI 的各种神经心理干预措施。这些技术单独进行了研究,随后研究了它们在治疗特定认知缺陷方面的作用。
该研究主要集中在回顾文献中的三种认知康复策略:(1)基于复述的方法;(2)补偿技术;(3)记忆策略。在本综述中,还包括 MCI 中语言缺陷的康复。
