患有智力和发育障碍（I/DD）的成年人越来越多地向他们的医疗保健专业人员提出与年龄增长相关的担忧。一个特别具有挑战性的临床问题是与I/DD老年人中疑似认知下降或痴呆的评估有关，这是大多数医生都没有准备好回答的问题。召集了智力残疾和痴呆症做法国家工作组，以帮助正式解决这一问题，这在医学文献中仍然很大程度上代表性不足。该工作组由与I/DD成人广泛合作的专家组成，已经颁布了以下关于智力残疾成人痴呆症评估和管理的共识建议，作为寻求实际，周到和全面地解决这一临床问题的执业医生的框架。(C)2013年马约医学教育和研究基金会
Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) are increasingly presenting to their health care professionals with concerns related to growing older. One particularly challenging clinical question is related to the evaluation of suspected cognitive decline or dementia in older adults with I/DD, a question that most physicians feel ill-prepared to answer. The National Task Group on Intellectual Disabilities and Dementia Practices was convened to help formally address this topic, which remains largely underrepresented in the medical literature. The task group, comprising specialists who work extensively with adults with I/DD, has promulgated the following Consensus Recommendations for the Evaluation and Management of Dementia in Adults With Intellectual Disabilities as a framework for the practicing physician who seeks to approach this clinical question practically, thoughtfully, and comprehensively.
