Abstract
Population aging is inextricably linked to an increase in the prevalence of dementia, which are one of the main causes of loss of autonomy in old age. However, early detection of cognitive decline is critical to proactively implementing interventions to slow the progression of cognitive decline and maintain the ability to live independently of outside help. Therefore, early detection of cognitive decline is one of the primary tasks of the general practitioner.
 The aim of the lecture is to present a low gait speed, frailty, neuropsychiatric symptoms, sleep disorders and hearing loss as biomarkers of high risk to development of dementia risk and suggest ways measuring these risk factors in primary health care.
