Multimorbidity and increased risk of cognitive decline

In Vivo Academy invites you to the second webinar “Multimorbidity and increased risk of cognitive decline” which will be facilitated by Emeritus Professor Mieke van Driel and presented by Professor Dimity Pond. Multimorbidity is prevalent in the Australian and New Zealand population. Starting from early adulthood and mid-life, it has been associated, not only with impaired functional capacity, reduced work productivity, poor quality of life and psychological stress, but also with increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia at older ages. This emphasises the importance of prevention and management of chronic diseases, focusing on continuity of care and developing strategies to reduce the burden of cognitive impairment and dementia.
