Abstract
The article discusses neuropsychological tests for diagnosing cognitive impairment. It presents data on the experience in using memantine (akatinol memantine) to treat dementia of various genesis. An analysis of efficacy of non-pharmacological approaches to the treatment of dementia including cognitive training is provided.
