An interventional study of 3 Home visits made by a psychologist in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration, sponsored by University Hospital, Bordeaux. Completed at 1 site in France.

Fronto-Temporal Lobar Degeneration (FTLD) refers to 3 categories of neurodegenerative diseases generally occurring between 55 and 65 years: Fronto-Temporal Dementia(FTD), Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA), Semantic Dementia (SD). Clinical expression is substantially variable among individuals, but in most cases, behavioural disorders and personality changes are prominent. FTLD is poorly known by general public including health care professionals. Currently, the French health system does not meet the needs and expectations of patients and their families
Patients with FTLD and their caregivers need to be recognized and supported through specific and tailored made actions provided by expert teams. The main objective of our study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a 6-month personalized multidisciplinary care provided to the dyad FTLD patient and caregiver on patient's behavioural disorders. The secondary objectives are to assess the impact of this program on patient's cognitive deterioration, functional autonomy and behavioral problems, as well as caregiver's depressive symptomatology and sense of competence
