Approaching Early Alzheimer Disease in Primary Care: Prompt Identification and Emerging Therapies
Catching Alzheimer disease early is critical, yet studies show that 40% of cases may be missed. Join this session to hear a candid discussion between a primary care physician and a geriatric neurologist about how to identify patients with Alzheimer disease and how new and emerging therapies may benefit these patients.
Learning Objectives
- Examine strategies that can be integrated into primary care practice to promote the detection of potential AD early in the disease process
- Discuss the clinical evaluation involved in reaching a diagnosis of AD and the expanding role of biomarkers in the diagnosis and monitoring of individuals with AD
- Evaluate the evidence supporting new and emerging anti-amyloid therapies and consider which patients are most likely to benefit from these therapies
