علاج الخرف الناجم عن مرض الأوعية الدموية الدماغية في ضعف الإدراك الوعائي الخفيف (vMCI) مع أعراض اكتئابية وقلقية

Mild vascular neurocognitive disorder (vascular mild cognitive impairment, vMCI) includes cognitive decline from a previous level of cognitive functioning without significant impairment of basic activities of daily living (bADLs) and/or instrumental activities of daily living (iADLs).

For patients with mild VCI it is reasonable to consider either cognitive-behavioural therapy, interpersonal therapy or behavioural activation as one of the first-line treatments for depressive and anxious symptoms, as a monotherapy.

Treatment for mood and anxiety may include psychotherapy, non-pharmacological therapies (such as exercise), and/or pharmacotherapy alone or in combination, as appropriate to the individual's health state and presence of cognitive and communication deficits.
