Résumé

Parmi les sujets âgés hospitalisés dans les services de soins aigus, 20 à 40 % ont une démence déjà diagnostiquée [1], qu’il s’agisse d’une maladie d’Alzheimer ou d’une démence apparentée. À comorbidité égale, leur statut fonctionnel à l’admission est moins bon que celui des patients de même âge sans troubles cognitifs et leur niveau de dépendance plus élevé à la sortie [1]. On observe chez ces malades des durées de séjour supérieures [2], des hospitalisations itératives et le pronostic à moyen terme est moins favorable: taux d’institutionnalisation et de décès majoré. Ces sujets constituent donc une population à haut risque de déclin fonctionnel lors de l’hospitalisation. En effet, si leur état de santé diffère peu de celui de la population générale [3], ils ont en revanche une altération de la réponse au stress et une mauvaise tolérance vis-à-vis de certains médicaments. Ils disposent aussi de faibles capacités d’adaptation aux changements d’environnement et aux modifications de rythme de vie expliquant leur grande vulnérabilité vis-à-vis des complications liées à la prise en charge hospitalière.
