Vascular Dementia is a type of Dementia which is a problem relating to planning, reasoning, memory, judgment usually caused by impaired blood flow to the brain. Stroke blocks may be the main reason for Vascular Dementia, but strokes not always cause the condition. It depends on the stroke severity and the area where it raised. Vascular dementia can also be caused by reduced blood supply to the brain, damaged blood vessels, less oxygen and nutrients to the brain.
