Question

The most frequent cause of death to people with Alzheimer’s, is aspiration, pneumonia, true or false

Answer 1

True. Aspiration pneumonia is one of the most common causes of death in people with Alzheimer's disease. Individuals with Alzheimer's may have difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), increasing the risk of food or liquid entering the airway, which can lead to aspiration pneumonia. This condition is a significant concern in the later stages of Alzheimer's disease.
