Cognitive Stimulation for Elderly Bipolar Patients

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Bipolar Disorder, Cognitive Impairment, Age-related Cognitive Decline

In brief

Age is a major risk factor for the development of cognitive disorders and neurodegenerative pathologies. Cognitive disorders during the phases of bipolar disease are known to exist, and alterations increase significantly after the age of 65. Drug treatments seem to have only a limited effect. A cognitive stimulation program has proven his benefit to patients over 65 with neurodegenerative diseases (Israel, 2004). We propose to evaluate this cognitive stimulation program that we have adapted to bipolar disease.
