Behavior and psychological Behavior and psychological symptoms of dementiasymptoms of dementia
為了與 「認知功能障礙」 ( cognitive impairment) 區分,Rabins 〈 1994 〉認為,應該把這些情緒、行為症狀歸類為「非認知症狀」 ( non-cognitive Symptoms) 。
但非認知行為症狀有些卻是續發於認知功能障礙,例如:錯認、漫遊迷失等。
精神表現 ( psychiatric manifestation ) 行為障礙 ( behavioral disturbance) (Rabins, 1996) 1996, IPA 將這些症狀統稱為失智症的行為及心理症狀 (
Behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia, BPSD)
11.7 % ~ 70.6% AD p’t reveal non-cognitive symptoms (Ballard & Oyebode, 1995)
主要分為五大類症狀:情感症狀、精神病症狀、驅力症狀、行為表現、其他(易怒、淡漠、去抑制化)
焦慮、易怒及行為問題則多伴隨著認知功能退化而更嚴重。

DiscussionDiscussion Behavioral changes are common: passive changes are present in mild
stage, agitation increasing throughout the course, and self-centered behaviors peak during the moderate stage.
Behavioral changes occurring early do not predict a more rapid course. (relation to frontal lobe)
Major affective disorder is rare. The changes in psychomotor activity, interest, concentration, and
energy are more frequently report by the collateral source than subjects. The psychotic symptoms most evident during the moderate stage. Psychotic symptoms occurring during mild stage are associated with
more rapid cognitive deterioration. (relation to temporal lobe) CDR 0.5 indicate behavioral change and affective pattern that are more
similar to mild stage than controls, but the psychotic symptoms are rare.
Depression vs. dementiaDepression vs. dementia 兩者獨立診斷,且無相似症狀,診斷上沒有困難 兩者獨立診斷,只是有人隨機同時有兩種症狀 兩者為共同病因造成,如:巴金森氏症、血管性失智症、均
易發生憂鬱症,也容易發生失智症 藥物所導致的認知功能減損 失智症病人的憂鬱症狀:過去認為是因為病人沒有辦法面對
不斷失去的認知功能而感到傷痛,不過目前的研究已經證實應該是跟神經傳導物質或神經細胞的減少有關。
憂鬱症病人有認知功能衰退,以往會被稱為假性痴呆,不過現在的研究已經證實即使經過治療有一群人的認知功能是無法恢復的,他們的 image 也呈現出類似 AD 病人的影像。稱之為 dementia syndrome of depression 。
Alexopoulos (1993) 研究發現,有假性痴呆的憂鬱症病人比單純憂鬱症的病人,前者有 43% 發展成不可逆的失智症,後者為 12% ,前者得到失智症的機會高出 4.69 倍。

change in appetite. Sleep disturbance: insomnia or hypersomnia. Excessive or depressed level of activity. Fatigue or low energy level Feeling of guilt or worthlessness Poor concentration and indecisiveness Recurrent thoughts of death or suicide.

REM Sleep Behavior DisorderREM Sleep Behavior Disorder A. Patient has a complaint of violent or injurious behavior during sleep. B. Limb or body movement is associated with dream mentation. C. At least one of the following occurs: 1. Harmful or potentially harmful sleep behaviors. 2. Dreams appear to be “acted out”. 3. Sleep behaviors disrupt sleep continuity. D. Polysomnographic monitoring demonstrates at least one of following electroph
ysiologic measures during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep: 1. Excessive augmentation of chin electromyographic (EMG) tone. 2. Excessive chin or limb phasic EMG twitching, irrespective of chin EMG activit
y and one or more of the following clinical features during REM sleep: a. Excessive limb or body jerking. b. Complex, vigorous, or violent behaviors. c. Absent of epileptic activity in association with the disorder. E. The symptoms are not associated with mental disorders but may be associated
with neurologic disorders. F. Other Sleep disorders (eg. Sleep terrors or sleepwalking) can be present but are
not the cause of the behavior.

38 % 0f 29 patient with idiopathic RBD who subsequently developed a PD with a mean of 12.7 years after the onset of RBD.
65% have developed parkinsonism and/or dementia during follow up.
1995: the association of RBD and DLB Even in the absent of visual hallucination of parkinsonism, the
presentation of dementia and RBD may nevertheless indicate underlying Lewy body disease.
Many frequent finding in DLB is rapid eye movement (REM) sleep disorder.

Depression (73%) Apathy (40 %) Irritability (20%) Agitation (20%) Anxiety, disinhibition, delusions or aberrant motor behavior were l
ess. Depression and irritability are more than PSP p’t. PSP p’t are more apathy than CBD p’t. The findings indicate that frontosubcortical pathways mediating co
gnition, emotion and motor function in CBD are not affected in parallel.
