Dementia arises from a diverse array of diseases and injuries that affect the brain, causing cognitive decline and functional impairment. Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) represents a distinct form of dementia, yet its recognition and understanding remain limited within the medical community. With an estimated prevalence of around 60,000 cases in the United States, FTD often eludes accurate diagnosis and is frequently mistaken for other conditions such as depression, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, or psychiatric disorders. This course examines frontotemporal dementia in detail, exploring its presentation, types, causes, and diagnostics methods. It also explores current treatment options, potential complications, management strategies, and nursing considerations to improve the quality of life for individuals affected by frontotemporal dementia.
