Lesson 18: Depression in Old Age\/Cognitive Decline-Related Depression (Lessons 641-680) \u00b7 Course Catalog<\/h2>
Symptom characteristics:<\/div>
Depression in old age often coexists with chronic pain, chronic diseases, sleep disorders, and social loss. Cognitively, it can manifest as decreased attention, slowed reaction time, and "pseudodementia"-like symptoms, requiring differentiation from neurodegenerative diseases. Mistaking depression for "normal aging" can delay intervention.<\/div><\/div>
Course Objectives:<\/div>
The course is based on the principles of "safety-rhythm-connection": first stabilize sleep and daytime light exposure, establish low-threshold activities and social connections; conduct simple cognitive training and behavioral activation, and collaboratively assess medication and chronic diseases; enable caregivers to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to form a long-term, executable homeostasis plan.<\/div><\/div>
