Amnesia Differential Diagnosis
- Catatonic stupor
- Dissociative Amnesia
- Neurocognitive disorders
- Normal age-related changes in memory[1]
- Post-traumatic amnesia due to brain injury
- Post-traumatic stress disorder
- Seizure disorders
- Substance-related disorders
- Factitious disorder and malingering[2]
Diseases | Differentiating Features | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Duration | Association | Cognitive Impairment | Feature 4 | Feature 5 | Feature 6 | ||
Post-traumatic amnesia | Varies | Head Trauma | Variable | ||||
Dissociative Amnesia | Variable. Could last minutes, hours, or rarely even months or years | ||||||
Transient global amnesia | Less than 24hrs | Brain ischemia, migraine, seizure, venous congestion, psychological trauma. | No cognitive impairment | ||||
Drug-Induced Amnesia | Once drug is stopped, memory gradually regained | Benzodiazepines | No cognitive impairment | ||||
Neurological Amnesia | Does not resolve, patient experiences progressive memory loss. | Alzheimer's disease, Pick's disease, Parkinson's disease | cognitive impairment observed | ||||
Transient epileptic amnesia[3] | Episodic transient amnesia | History of epilepsy | No cognitive impairment |
