SUMMARY:Breaking Barriers in Alzheimer’s Disease Series: Innovative Diagnostics for Women
DESCRIPTION:Approximately two-thirds of Alzheimer’s disease patients are women\, as well as more than 60% of their caregivers. Stigma surrounding in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia can cause some women to dismiss symptoms as normal aging or menopausal brain fog and delay talking to their health care provider. Moreover\, coverage of screening and diagnostic tests can be difficult and confusing to navigate\, also contributing to delays in diagnosing and treating Alzheimer’s disease. \nAn early diagnosis is essential for slowing the progression of Alzheimer’s disease\, planning for long-term care\, and maintaining quality of life for both patients and their caregivers. It also provides more opportunities for individuals to participate in medical decisions and potential clinical trials\, as well as maintain meaningful social relationships within their community. \nResearchers are continuing to investigate more cost-effective and noninvasive approaches for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Coupling education to innovation broadens awareness and helps women make informed decisions about their health care throughout their Alzheimer’s disease journey. \nSWHR hosted series of webinars to share the experiences of women with Alzheimer’s disease and highlight the importance of access to innovative diagnostics throughout the diagnostic journey. \nThe SWHR Breaking Barriers in Alzheimer’s Disease series includes: \n\nPerspectives on Early-Stage Alzheimer’s (April 2024)\nInnovative Diagnostics for Women (June 2024)\nOpportunities to Enhance Women’s Health through Alzheimer’s Disease Policy Initiatives (Nov 2024)\nA Congressional Briefing | Early Signs\, Lasting Impact: Policy Pathways in Alzheimer’s Disease Detection and Care (May 2025)
