Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pseudodementia is a condition where the symptoms mimic those of dementia but are actually due to a reversible cause, such as depression. In this case, a client who is confused and clinically depressed (A) would be the correct choice, as their cognitive impairment may improve with treatment of their depression, unlike the irreversible cognitive decline seen in Alzheimer disease or other forms of dementia.
