Explore the idea of prevention and treatment of dementia based on the correlation between memory information processing theory and the thought of preventative treatment
Memory decline is the key reason for the occurrence,development,and transmission of dementia.The transmission process of dementia is summarized as early amnesia-memory decline-cognitive decline-dementia,and it is found that it is similar to the thought of Chinese medicine preventative treatment of prevention before illness-prevention after illness-prevention and recovery after illness by examining the pathogenesis of dementia from the perspective of memory information processing.Based on the importance of memory decline to the development of dementia,this paper examines the internal relationship between the theory of memory information processing and the thought of preventative treatment in delaying memory decline by combining the theories of cognitive psychology and traditional Chinese medicine,and proposes the idea of prevention and treatment.That is,in the prevention and treatment process of dementia,by grasping the dynamic changes of memory,paying attention to the critical period of prevention after illness,focusing on the control of the process from early amnesia to memory decline,in order to enhance the memory training of patients,delay memory decline,and improve cognitive problems.
