Abstract

High prevalence of cognitive impairment, especially among the elderly, leads to decreased quality of life for patients, impaired daily activity, increased risk of dementia and mortality. Currently, much attention is paid to mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The article discusses the diagnostic criteria and possible clinical variants of this syndrome. Given the high frequency of progression of MCI to dementia, it is necessary to identify risk groups and carry out therapeutic measures for prevention. Correction of potentially modifiable risk factors is considered as a promising area of therapy. Adequate physical and mental activity, adherence to a proper diet, normalization of sleep, visual acuity and hearing are necessary. Prevention of stroke and control of vascular risk factors can reduce the risk of MCI progression to dementia.
