Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, requires early intervention to delay cognitive decline and enhance quality of life. This national survey of 100 neurologists explored their clinical practices in managing early-stage AD, including diagnostic approaches, treatment selection, patient counseling and perceived barriers. While neurologists acknowledged the importance of early intervention, challenges such as limited resources, time constraints and patient non-cooperation hindered optimal care. Variability in diagnostic and counseling practices often stemmed from disparities in resources and training. These findings highlight the need for revised guidelines, enhanced training and improved resources to support neurologists in providing consistent and effective early-stage AD care.
