How deadly is Alzheimer?

['Faalogologo i lenei itulau']

O le ā le mataʻutia o le maʻi o le Alzheimer?

O le faamaʻi o le Alzheimer o se maʻi e faasolosolo mālie ona tupu, lea e faaleagaina ai sela o le faiʻai ma feoti ai, ma iʻu ai ina faaitiitia le manatuaina o mea, le mafaufau, ma le faia o faaiʻuga.

O le pogai lea e masani ona maua ai tagata i le maʻi o le mafaufau, ma e 60 i le 80 pasene o tagata e maua ai.

O le faamaʻi e iʻu ina oti ai, ma o le umi o le ola e maua mai i le taimi e maua ai, e 4-8 tausaga, e ui lava e oo atu i le 20 tausaga o ola nisi o tagata i le faamaʻi.

E eseese le fuainumera o tagata e maliliu i le faamaʻi o le Alzheimer, e fua i suʻesuʻega ma tagata o loo suʻesuʻeina.

E tusa ai ma le Alzheimer's Association, o le faamaʻi o le Alzheimer o le māfuaaga lona ono lea e māfua ai le oti i le Iunaite Setete, ma o le māfuaaga lona lima lea e māfua ai le oti o i latou e 65 tausaga ma matutua atu.

I le 2019, o le faʻamaʻi o le Alzheimer na lipotia mai o le mafuaʻaga autu o le maliu mo le 121,9444 tagata i le Iunaite Setete.

E tāua le mātauina e faapea, o le fuainumera o tagata e maliliu ona o le faamaʻi o le Alzheimer, e lē na o le faamaʻi lava, ae e māfua foʻi ona o ni faafitauli ma isi faafitauli tau i le soifua mālōlōina e māfua mai i le faamaʻi.

A o faasolo ina leaga le maʻi, e ono faigatā i tagata ona faia mea masani i aso taʻitasi, e pei o le ʻai, tāʻele, ma ofu, ma e ono oo ai i le lē lava o meaʻai, maʻi pipisi, ma isi faafitauli tau le soifua mālōlōina.

E lē gata i lea, o tagata e maua i le maʻi o le Alzheimer, e ono sili atu ona paʻū, ma aafia i le niumonia ma isi faamaʻi pipisi.

E ui e lē o iai se vaifofō mo le faamaʻi o le Alzheimer, ae e iai togafitiga e mafai ona fesoasoani e pulea ai āuga ma faaleleia ai le tulaga o le olaga.

O loo faia pea suʻesuʻega ina ia maua ai ni togafitiga fou ma le auala e foʻia ai lenei faamaʻi mataʻutia.

How deadly is alzheimer?

Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that causes brain cells to degenerate and die, leading to a decline in memory, thinking, and reasoning skills.

It is the most common cause of dementia, accounting for 60-80% of all cases.

The disease is ultimately fatal, with the average life expectancy after diagnosis being 4-8 years, although some people can live up to 20 years with the disease.

The mortality rate for Alzheimer's disease varies depending on the study and the population being examined.

According to the Alzheimer's Association, Alzheimer's disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States, and it is the fifth leading cause of death for those aged 65 and older.

In 2019, Alzheimer's disease was reported as the underlying cause of death for 121,9444 people in the United States.

It is important to note that the mortality rate for Alzheimer's disease is not solely due to the disease itself, but also due to complications and other health issues that arise as a result of the disease.

As the disease progresses, individuals may experience difficulty with activities of daily living, such as eating, bathing, and dressing, which can lead to malnutrition, infections, and other health problems.

Additionally, individuals with Alzheimer's disease may be at an increased risk of falls, pneumonia, and other infections.

While there is currently no cure for Alzheimer's disease, there are treatments available that can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

Research is ongoing to develop new treatments and ultimately find a cure for this devastating disease.
