Abstract:
The WHO has identified the development of preventive measures to reduce the risk of cognitive impairment as a key medical priority. Cardiovascular diseases and cognitive impairments share similar risk factors, such as obesity, smoking, dyslipidemia, physical inactivity, and low education. However, atrial fibrillation (AF), hypertension, heart failure (HF), chronic kidney disease, and diabetes contribute to the progression of cognitive impairment. In the era of patient-centered medicine, the potential of specific treatment regimens for preventing cognitive impairment must be considered when selecting the optimal treatment regimen for hypertension, AF, and HF. This article provides a review of existing therapeutic strategies for preventing cognitive impairment in cardiac patients. Keywords: cognitive impairment, dementia, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, mexidol.
