Samenvatting

Een 85-jarige man is opgenomen op de psychogeriatrische afdeling van een verpleeghuis vanwege M. Alzheimer. Sinds zes weken is zijn situatie achteruit gegaan. Patiënt is minder mobiel en de communicatie is verslechterd, patiënt praat onduidelijker dan voorheen. Bij lichamelijk onderzoek wordt een lichte dysartrie en krachtsverlies van het rechter been waargenomen. Er zijn geen aanwijzingen voor een delier. Patiënt gebruikt orale antistolling (acenocoumarol) in verband met chronisch nietvalvulair atriumfibrilleren. Tevens heeft patiënt hypertensie in de voorgeschiedenis. Het beleid is terughoudend, onder andere is afgesproken om ziekenhuisopnamen te voorkomen.
