Dementia is the name given to a group of conditions that cause severe memory loss, personality changes and difficulties with everyday life. Alzheimerâs disease is the most common type of dementia. The second most common type is vascular dementia (multi-infarct dementia), in which blood flow to the brain is disrupted. Someone with dementia will experience more than the minor memory lapses considered part of the normal ageing process.
