Loss of independence becomes more marked as Alzheimer's disease (AD) progresses and contributes significantly to its societal and economic burden. Existing measures of functional disability focus either on basic or on instrumental activities of daily living (ADL). It would be more appropriate to combine these but, using existing assessment tools, this would involve considerable quantitative analysis. Recently, a qualitative and pragmatic system of classifying AD patients according to levels of dependency has been developed in a Belgian cohort.
