Medical Notes:
A cerebrovascular accident is also called a CVA, brain attack, or stroke. It occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is suddenly stopped and oxygen cannot get to that part. This lack of oxygen may damage or kill the brain cells. Death of a part of the brain may lead to loss of certain body functions controlled by that affected part.
Mixed dementia
Mixed dementia, sometimes known clinically as "Dementia - multifactoral", is a dementia condition characterized by symptoms and abnormalities of more than one type of dementia at once. Usually, mixed dementia entails a combination of Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. In other cases, mixed dementia involves characteristics from both Alzheimer's disease and Lewy bodies, and sometimes mixed dementia can even entail a combination of all three of these diseases.
Recent research is discovering that mixed dementia may be much more common than previously presumed. This research shows that a large proportion of dementia sufferers over the age of 80 may have mixed dementia, with characteristics of both Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia.
