About this study

This research aims at analysing the profile of the elderly with cognitive impairment (IC) and inquiring about the mental illnesses that cause cognitive impairment of a population (elderly admitted to nursing homes with a high incidence).

Read the detailed description

The objectives of these studies are to determine the presence of IC and the profile of users who suffer from it in 8 nursing homes in the province of Pontevedra of new admission in 2017, as well as the identification of the frequency of underdiagnosis in the filiation of the mental pathology that causes IC and if that underdiagnosis is related to the presence of doctors or nurses specialists in geriatrics. Sociodemographic, clinical (with special relevance in cognitive assessment and the presence of mental disorders) and functional variables will be analyzed. In addition to providing information that can improve the DC early detection as well as the scarcity of studies in this field, the importance of this research is justified by developing treatment guidelines for people with IC in the future
