2887 – Mild cognitive impairment patients and psychiatric follow up

Abstract

The case study will be used to illustrate our collaboration emerging from a joined everyday multidisciplinary evaluation in a day care center of a large community general hospital. Many of these patients meet a geriatric specialist, a neuropsychologist and a psychiatrist after a somatic, biological and radiological evaluation. Some of those patients benefit of a long lasting psychiatric follow up even though they had never had a psychiatric medical personnal history in the past. We will present in detail a long lasting follow up: neuropharmacological treatment and psychotherapy which are aiming for more than two years to stabilize major anxiety disorder of a seventy five old woman whose quality of life has significantly improved.
