failing cognition/failing cognitive functions
Enligt min mening så innebär svikt i medicinsk mening både ett svagt tillstånd och en vikande trend i tillståndet. Även om jag gillar Annas förslag på hur tillståndet ska beskrivas, tycker jag inte att det eller något annat förslag lyckats med att förmedla den vikande trend som svikt också kan innebära, vilket jag tycker att mitt förslag gör.

Some of the links I've found so far mention "cognitive decline". This works well in expressing the downward trend in cognition, but not so much it's already frail state - i.e. "cognitive decline" as a translation of "svikt" would be problematic, but for the exact opposite reason to that of the other suggestions'...
