Prognosis The disease is progressive; patients have deterioration in their behavior, cognition, and ability to perform activities of daily living. At an advanced stage, patients are confined to bed. [orpha.net]

Prognosis - Alzheimer disease type 4 course of disease can continue for up to 25 years Treatment - Alzheimer disease type 4 There is no cure for AD. Treatment is supportive and based on the signs and symptoms present in each person. [checkorphan.org]

A diagnosis of possible AD dementia is made when the patient meets most of the AD criteria, but has an atypical course or an etiologically mixed presentation. 6 This may consist of an atypical onset (eg, sudden onset) or atypical progression. [bcidaho.com]

Summary Epidemiology EOAD represents less than 1% of all cases of AD. Clinical description Initial findings of EOAD are mainly disorders of episodic memory or changes in behavior. [orpha.net]
