Isi artikel

Dementia in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is a progressive dementia with extensive neurological signs, due to specific neuropathological changes (subacute spongiform ensephalopathy) that are presumed to be caused by a transmissible agent called prion. There are four types of dementia in creutzfeldt - jakob disease, namely sporadic, familial, transmissible / iatrogenic and new varian. The trial consisting of rapidly progressing and devastating dementia, pyramidal and extrapyramidal disease with myoclonus and a characteristic trifasic electroencephalogram is thought to be highly suggestive of this disease. The onset is usually in middle or later life, typically in the fifth decade, but may be at any adult age. The course is subacute, leading to death within 1 - 2 years. As an entity disease, the whole prognosis is very poor. There is no effective therapy for dementia in creutzfeldt-jakob disease, instead of making the patient free from pain and other sypmtoms, along with creating a condusive environment as good as possible. Counselling towards the patients and his family, combined with psychopharmaca such as anti dementia, anti psychotic and anxyolitic drugs would be very helpful. Prevention of suffering from creutzfeld-jakob disease is still the best way until now.
