Abstract

This volume demonstrates how hospice care leads to improved quality of life for patients with terminal dementia and their families. Much of the information is based on the successful 10-year experience of the E.N. Rogers Memorial Hospital, where the first palliative care program for the management of patients with advanced dementia was developed. The book discusses Alzheimer's and other progressive dementias and reviews the clinical problems encountered, including infections, eating difficulties, and behavioral problems. It further addresses how to implement hospice care programs for these pat

Abstract

Once a chromosomal defect for Alzheimer's disease is identified, it becomes possible to devise a test for its presence. The implications of such tests are the focus of this volume. Contributors from the fields of ethics, genetics, policy, neurology, philosophy and others discuss the issues.In recent years, scientists have begun to uncover the genetic bases for some forms of Alzheimer's disease. Once a chromosomal defect is identified, it becomes possible to devise a test for its presence. The far-reaching implications of such tests are the focus of this volume. The editors bring together experts from the fields of ethics, genetics, policy, neurology, philosophy and anthropology to examine the ethical and social aspects of genetic testing for Alzheimer's disease. The authors begin by focusing on current genetic findings and their clinical applicability. They then address ethical issues in genetic testing and genetic counselling for Alzheimer's disease. They examine social issues such as confidentiality, discrimination and fairness in health care. Finally, they discuss ways to educate professionals and laypeople regarding these issues.
