Canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) is an age-related neurobehavioural syndrome which, although common, is severely under-diagnosed in community-based dogs. Using data from a large cross-sectional survey of older dogs (n=957), this study aimed to develop a clinical scale for assessing CCD.

2024年1月26日 · Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD) is a common problem in elderly dogs, but it can be managed to improve the welfare of both patients and owners. Early recognition and intervention is key to an improved prognosis for CCD.

2022年8月25日 · An increased understanding of CCD may help to advance treatment of cognitive disease in dogs. These potential benefits highlight the importance of accurate diagnosis of CCD in companion dogs.

2015年10月1日 · We developed and validated a rating scale CADES for assessment of severity and progression of canine cognitive dysfunction syndrome. We identified various stages of cognitive impairment from mild to severe cognitive dysfunction. The rate of conversion at 6-months follow-up of mild to moderate cognitive impairment was 24%.

Key points: - Researchers used data from a large survey of older dogs to identify behaviors distinguishing dogs with CCD from those with normal aging. - They refined the behaviors into a 13-item CCDR scale, including 3 items sensitive to CCD severity.

Canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) is a neurodegenerative disease in aging dogs. It has been described previously in relatively small cohorts of dogs using multiple different rating scales. This study aimed to use a minimally modified CCD rating ...

Canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) affects approximately 30% of dogs > 11 years old and nearly all dogs > 13.5 years old. Clinically it is characterized by a decline in memory, learning, activity, perception, social interaction, and awareness. The prevalence of CCD increases with age.
