Anterograde amnesia is a loss of the ability to CREATE NEW MEMORIES after the event that caused the amnesia, leading to a partial or complete inability to recall the recent past, while long-term memories from before the event remain intact. This is in contrast to retrograde amnesia, where memories created PRIOR TO THE EVENT are lost. Both can occur together in the same patient.

 Retrograde amnesia (RA) is a loss of access to events that occurred, or information that was learned, BEFORE AN INJURY or the onset of a disease.[
