Patients with Dementia Assessing their Quality of Life

Abstract
In Greek, the term “dementia” equals to the word “anoia” which includes an alpha privative and the word mind [1]. According to Alzheimer Atlas of Disease: ‘‘Dementia is the term that describes the loss of cognitive abilities in a variety of areas of cognitive functioning, such as memory, reason, executive functions and visual-auditory skills. It is so severe that it interferes with one’s daily, professional and social activities’’ [2].
