Inadäquate Vokalisationen in Form von lautem Schreien wurde als demenzassoziierte Verhaltensweise bereits von Alois Alzheimer in der historischen Krankenakte der Patientin Auguste D. beschrieben. Diese Verhaltensveränderungen gehören zu den Symptomen einer fortgeschrittenen Demenz, welche die Pflege und Behandlung erheblich erschweren und die Angehörigen und Pflegenden einer hohen emotionalen Belastung aussetzen können. Insbesondere lautes Schreien ist häufig Anlass für Einweisungen in stationäre gerontopsychiatrische Institutionen. Es stellt eine Verhaltensstörung dar, welcher ex juvantibus mit unterschiedlichen pharmako-, psycho- und milieutherapeutischen Interventionen begegnet wird, ohne dass es bislang gut evaluierte Therapieempfehlungen gäbe. Es ist zu befürchten, dass aus der Not heraus pharmakologische Interventionen gewählt werden, welche den Patienten nicht nützen oder sie sogar gefährden. Das Spektrum inadäquater Lautäußerungen reicht von leisem Murmeln bis zu lautem Schreien. Nicht alle Vokalisationen machen eine therapeutische Intervention erforderlich. Diese Übersicht versucht das Spektrum der inadäquaten Vokalisationen bei Demenzerkrankungen darzustellen und referiert den aktuellen Wissensstand zu möglichen therapeutischen Ansätzen.

Alois Alzheimer is best known for his description of a novel disease, subsequently named after him. However, his wide range of interests also included vascular brain diseases. He described Senile dementia, a highly heterogeneous condition, and was able not only to distinguish it from syphilitic brain disease, but also to discriminate two clinicopathological subtypes, that may be labeled a "arteriosclerotic subtype", comparable to the present clinicopathological continuum of "Vascular cognitive impairment", and another as a "neurodegenerative subtype", characterized by primary [cortical] ganglion cell [nerve cells] degeneration, possibly foreshadowing a peculiar presenile disease that he was to describe some years later and would carry his name. He also considered the possibility of a senile presentation of this disease subtype, which was described by Oskar Fischer a short time later. Considering the clinicopathological overlapping features of the "arteriosclerotic subtype" of Senile dementia with Arteriosclerotic atrophy of the brain, it might be possible to consider that both represent a single condition.
