Symptoms of Early Dementia Questionnaire
Cognitive impairment is a condition caused by changes in the brain’s nerve cells, leading to a decline in brain function. It affects the patient’s memory, understanding, language, learning, calculation and judgement abilities, among others. Early detection of cognitive difficulties in older adults can help manage the condition and slow its progression.
The Symptoms of Early Dementia-11 Questionnaire was developed by the Haruhiko Yamaguchi Research Laboratory and contains 10 questions that help identify symptoms of cognitive impairment early. Please complete this questionnaire based on the older adult’s experiences over the past month.
1. Does he often repeat the same questions?
2. Does he not understand the background of the activities he is participating in?
3. Is he indifferent to his clothing or other personal matters?
4. Does he often forget to turn off the tap or lock the door?
5. If he is doing two things at once, does he easily forget one of them?
6. Is he unable to manage his medications and take them correctly?
7. Does he take longer to complete the same tasks than he used to?
8. Is he unable to make plans?
9. Does he have difficulty understanding complex topics?
10. Has he lost interest and motivation in hobbies he used to enjoy?
