摘要

Objective: To determine the prevalence of glaucoma in older adults with dementia of the Alzheimer's type (DAT). Methods: Retrospective chart review: The prevalence of glaucoma was determined in older adults with a diagnosis of DAT or mixed dementia (DAT with vascular contribution) admitted to the geriatric and neurology units of the Centre hospitalier de l'Universite de Montreal and the Hopital Maisonneuve-Rosemont between April 2008 and April 2009 (n=220; DAT group). They were matched for age and date of hospitalisation to the first 220 individuals without dementia (control group) recruited from other medical units in the same hospitals: gastroenterology, internal medicine or cardiology. A diagnosis of glaucoma was deemed positive if recorded in the chart or if there was a medication compatible with this diagnosis. Chi-square tests were used for between-group comparisons. Results: Subjects' age ranged from 66 to 101 years. The prevalence of glaucoma was 6.8% in our study population (n=30/440). Glaucoma was significantly more prevalent in the DAT group (n=21; 9.5%) than in the control group (n= 9: 4.1%) [chi(2)(1) = 5.15; p = 0.023]. Conclusions: The prevalence of glaucoma was higher in a group of older adults with DAT than in a comparable control group. These results underscore the importance of providing regular eyecare for persons affected by DAT.
