该报告提供了信息，以增加对阿尔茨海默氏病（AD）公共卫生影响的理解。所讨论的主题包括发病率，患病率，死亡率，健康支出以及护理成本以及对看护人和社会的影响。该报告还探讨了当AD和其他痴呆症患者独自生活时出现的问题。描述了该人群的特征，风险和未满足的需求。估计有540万美国人拥有广告，包括所有种族和族裔的大约200,000年龄= 85岁），预计将有助于AD.AD的增加是美国第六个主要因素，是美国的第六个主要原因，是美国人死亡> 65岁= 65岁= 65岁。尽管在过去几年中，由于其他重大死亡原因造成的死亡比例有所下降，但由于AD所致的比例显着增加。在2000年至2008年之间，由于心脏病，中风和前列腺癌的死亡比例分别降低了13％，20％和8％，而由于AD造成的比例增加了66％。2011年，超过1500万家庭成员和其他无偿护理人员为AD和其他dementias and Droption and Droption and Proltion and proltion and proltion and $ 21000040亿小时提供。向受益人的服务付款>年龄> = 65岁的AD和其他痴呆症的费用是没有这些条件的受益人支付的三倍，而医疗补助付款的19倍。在2012年，预计与AD和其他痴呆症的65岁人群的医疗保健，长期护理和临终关怀服务的款项预计为2000亿美元（不包括未付护理人员的贡献）。估计有80万人单独使用AD（一人），其中一半的人没有一个可识别的护理人员。独自生活的痴呆症患者面临的风险超过了与他人同住的痴呆症患者遇到的风险，包括自我保健，营养不良，未经治疗的医疗状况，跌倒，无人看管和意外死亡徘徊。 （c）2012年阿尔茨海默氏症协会。版权所有。
This report provides information to increase understanding of the public health impact of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Topics addressed include incidence, prevalence, mortality rates, health expenditures and costs of care, and effect on caregivers and society. The report also explores issues that arise when people with AD and other dementias live alone. The characteristics, risks, and unmet needs of this population are described.An estimated 5.4 million Americans have AD, including approximately 200,000 age = 85 years) across all racial and ethnic groups are expected to contribute to the increased prevalence of AD.AD is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States and the fifth leading cause of death in Americans age >= 65 years. Although the proportions of deaths due to other major causes of death have decreased in the last several years, the proportion due to AD has risen significantly. Between 2000 and 2008, the proportion of deaths due to heart disease, stroke, and prostate cancer decreased by 13%, 20%, and 8%, respectively, whereas the proportion due to AD increased by 66%.In 2011, more than 15 million family members and other unpaid caregivers provided an estimated 17.4 billion hours of care to people with AD and other dementias, a contribution valued at more than $210 billion. Medicare payments for services to beneficiaries age >= 65 years with AD and other dementias are three times as great as payments for beneficiaries without these conditions, and Medicaid payments are 19 times as great. In 2012, payments for health care, long-term care, and hospice services for people age >= 65 years with AD and other dementias are expected to be $200 billion (not including the contributions of unpaid caregivers).An estimated 800,000 people with AD (one in seven) live alone, and up to half of them do not have an identifiable caregiver. People with dementia who live alone are exposed to risks that exceed the risks encountered by people with dementia who live with others, including inadequate self-care, malnutrition, untreated medical conditions, falls, wandering from home unattended, and accidental deaths.
