Neurocognitive Disorders Flashcards
Delirium
NO DURATION; specify if substance intoxication/withdrawal delirium; medication-induced or due to another medical condition; or due to multiple etiologies. Specify acute (lasting hours to days) or Persistent (weeks to months); specify hyperactive/hypoactive/mixed.
Substance intoxication delirium
NO DURATION; specify if substance intoxication/withdrawal delirium; medication-induced or due to another medical condition; or due to multiple etiologies. Specify acute (lasting hours to days) or Persistent (weeks to months); specify hyperactive/hypoactive/mixed.
Substance withdrawal delirium
NO DURATION; specify if substance intoxication/withdrawal delirium; medication-induced or due to another medical condition; or due to multiple etiologies. Specify acute (lasting hours to days) or Persistent (weeks to months); specify hyperactive/hypoactive/mixed.
Medication-induced delirium
NO DURATION; specify if substance intoxication/withdrawal delirium; medication-induced or due to another medical condition; or due to multiple etiologies. Specify acute (lasting hours to days) or Persistent (weeks to months); specify hyperactive/hypoactive/mixed.
Delirium due to another medical condition
NO DURATION; specify if substance intoxication/withdrawal delirium; medication-induced or due to another medical condition; or due to multiple etiologies. Specify acute (lasting hours to days) or Persistent (weeks to months); specify hyperactive/hypoactive/mixed.
Delirium due to multiple etiologies
NO DURATION; specify if substance intoxication/withdrawal delirium; medication-induced or due to another medical condition; or due to multiple etiologies. Specify acute (lasting hours to days) or Persistent (weeks to months); specify hyperactive/hypoactive/mixed.
Major and mild NCD due to Alzheimer’s disease
Insidious onset, gradual progression, with extended plateaus.
Major and mild frontotemporal neurocognitive d/o
Insidious onset, gradual progression; behavior variant and language variant; relative sparing of learning and memory.
Major and mild NCD with Lewy bodies
Insidious and gradual; core dx features: fluctuating cognition with pronounced variations in attention and alertness; recurrent VH that are well formed and detailed; spontaneous features of parkinsonism, with onset subsequent to the development of cognitive decline. Suggestive dx features: meets criteria for REM sleep behavior disorder; sever neuroleptic sensitivity.
Major and mild vascular NCD
acute stepwise or fluctuating decline in cognition. Usually related to a cerebrovascular event; evidence for decline is prominent in complex attention (incl. processing speed).
Major and mild NCD due to traumatic brain injury
Immediately after TBI.
Substance/medication induced major and mild NCD
Does not occur during intoxication/withdrawal/delirium related the the medication or substance (think ETOH /inhalants / sedatives.)
Major and mild NCD due to HIV infection
NO DURATION.
Major and mild NCD due to prion disease
ONSET IS INSIDIOUS, PROGRESSION IS RAPID; think myoclonus and ataxia, biomarker evidence.
Major and mild NCD due to Parkinson disease
INSIDIOUS ONSET, GRADUAL PROGRESSION; OCCURS IN SETTING OF ESTABLISHED PARKINSON’S DISEASE.
Major and mild NCD due to Huntington disease
INSIDIOUS ONSET, GRADUAL PROGRESSION; clinically established Huntington’s disease or high risk based on family hx or genetic testing. CAG trinucelotide repeat expansion in HTT gene located on chromosome 4.
Major and mild NCD due to multiple etiologies
NO DURATION.
Major and mild NCD due to another medical condition
NO DURATION.
