Abstract

Nowadays, worldwide, around 50 million people have dementia. Every year, there are nearly 10 million new cases and as increasing life expectancy is a reality, neurocognitive spectrum is rising in incidence and it is estimated according WHO that the total number of people with dementia will reach 82 million in 2030 and 152 in 2050 worldwide, so it is a real public health problem. In 2015, the total global cost of dementia was estimated to be US$ 818 billion and by 2018, this will rise above a US$ trillion. In May 2017, the World Health Assembly endorsed the Global action plan on the public health response to dementia 2017-2025 [1].
