| description | The stressful life of women is gaining more attention and has come into limelight as a prominent cause of dementia. Dementia is a concern for many women. The women in menopausal transition also seem to be most fearful of developing breast cancer, closely followed by Alzheimer's dementia. Dementia is one of the leading problem faced by the people worldwide now a days and a matter of worry too.
Understanding Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is important, and many cases may progress to dementia, though some may revert to normal cognition. Very few studies on MCI have been carried out in India. The prevalence is estimated to reach 3.6 million by 2020 and 7.5 million by 2040 in this region. The main study was conducted on 200 subjects. The statistical paired ‘t’ test implies that the difference in the pre test and post test mean MMSE score in experimental group found to be statistically significant at 5% level (p<0.05) with paired ‘t’ value of 38.96, there exists a statistical significance in the post MMSE score revealed a positive impact of structured cognitive stimulation.
Altogether the results expounded that there is an enhancement of scores in MMSE indicating the effectiveness of structured cognitive stimulation. |
