It is the most commonly diagnosed form of dementia and often results in the following: Impaired memory, thinking, and behavior Confusion Restlessness Personality and behavior changes Impaired judgment Impaired communication Inability to follow directions Language deterioration Impaired thought processes that involve visual and spatial awareness Emotional apathy With Alzheimer's disease, motor function is often preserved.

Overview Treatments Dementia is a general term for selective degeneration of a particular part of the brain out of proportion to the normal, mild deterioration that happens with aging. The part of the brain that deteriorates determines the symptoms of the disease. The most common form of dementia is Alzheimer's, which primarily affects memory. However, there are several other types of dementia that selectively affect other areas of the brain and cause slightly different symptoms. This makes proper evaluation and diagnosis critical.

What Is Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus? Expand Content Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a treatable condition of the brain that usually affects people 60 years of age and older. Our bodies regularly produce spinal fluid in the brain. However, as we age, this fluid will not always get reabsorbed at the same rate. NPH is a condition of the brain where cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) builds up in the brain’s ventricles and causes pressure. The ventricles then push out against the brain which can stretch the brain and neurons that control balance, bladder, memory and thought processes.
