Abstract

Dementia is a combination of progressively worsening memory and intellectual problems that interfere with regular daily tasks. There is no specific treatment for dementia, so prevention measures and early detection of dementia are top priorities. The purpose of the research is to provide prevalence of dementia among inpatients at Internal Medicine Department A of NgheAn General Friendship Hospital in 2023. A cross-sectional investigation was conducted on 290 patients (all under the age of 60). The Mini-Cog dementia screening scale and pre-written interview questions on gender, age, BMI, and various comorbidities were used to gather data. The results showed that the prevalence of dementia among inpatients was 35.2%. Male patients accounted for 48.62% less than female patients, who accounted for 51.38%. The age range of 70–79 years old accounts for the majority of patients visiting the department (46.3%). Normal BMI accounts for the majority at 70%, followed by patients with BMI in the lean and overweight (obese) ranges at 17–13%. And 67.6% of the patients had hypertension, which was the most common ailment.
