“…A broad range of cutoff scores for dementia severity was reported for the MMSE. Seven studies referred to an MMSE of < 25 [ 37 , 40 , 48 – 51 ], 6 studies used a cutoff of ≤ 24 [ 85 – 90 ], 8 articles referred to a cutoff of < 24 to detect mild dementia [ 76 – 80 , 82 , 91 , 92 ], and 4 articles referred to a more conservative cutoff. [ 39 , 41 , 83 , 93 ] One article specified a higher cutoff value of ≤ 27 but conducted confirmatory testing with the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) for residents with an MMSE between 24 and 27 [ 84 ].…”

People with dementia in nursing home research: a methodological review of the definition and identification of the study population

BackgroundThere are various definitions and diagnostic criteria for dementia, leading to discrepancies in case ascertainment in both clinical practice and research. We reviewed the different definitions, approaches and measurements used to operationalize dementia in health care studies in German nursing homes with the aim of discussing the implications of different approaches.MethodsWe conducted a systematic search of the MEDLINE and CINAHL databases to identify pre-2016 studies conducted in German nursing homes that focused on residents with dementia or cognitive impairment. In- or exclusion of studies were consented by all authors; data extraction was independently carried out by 2 authors (RP, SJ). The studies’ sampling methods were compared with respect to their inclusion criteria, assessment tools and methods used to identify the study population.ResultsWe summarized case ascertainment methods from 64 studies. Study participants were identified based on a diagnosis that was evaluated during the study, or a recorded medical dementia diagnosis, or a recorded medical diagnosis either with additional cognitive screenings or using screening tests exclusively. The descriptions of the diagnostics that were applied to assess a diagnosis of dementia were not fully transparent in most of the studies with respect to either a clear reference definition of dementia or applied diagnostic criteria. If reported, various neuropsychological tests were used, mostly without a clear rationale for their selection.ConclusionPragmatic considerations often determine the sampling strategy; they also may explain the variances we detected in the different studies. Variations in sampling methods impede the comparability of study results. There is a need to consent case ascertainment strategies in dementia studies in health service research in nursing homes. These strategies should consider resource constraints and ethical issues that are related to the vulnerable population of nursing home residents. Additionally, reporting about dementia studies in nursing homes need to be improved. If a diagnosis cannot be evaluated based on either ICD or DSM criteria, the study population may not be reported as having dementia. If a diagnosis is evaluated based on ICD or DSM criteria within the study, there is a need for more transparency of the diagnostic process.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12877-016-0249-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…websites and web applications, and also primarily focused on elderly people in general and not on people with cognitive impairments. Although there is growing evidence that people with dementia are able to use a tablet and its apps, 24,26,28,37,38 evidence of the importance of diversity regarding functional and technical features of apps for the successful use of tablets by people with dementia is still very scarce. To our knowledge, this study is the first of this kind.…”

“…Although people with dementia will need support to learn how to use the touchscreen and apps, 23–29 several mainly qualitative studies have shown that those who used the tablet and its apps evaluated it as user-friendly and valuable. 24–38 The tablet and its apps may therefore be promising tools in supporting self-management activities 21,24 and engaging in meaningful activities 26,39 in the early stages of the disease.…”

Touchscreen devices (e.g. tablets) can be supportive for people with mild dementia. This study identified user requirements for the development of a tool for selecting usable apps in the domains of self-management and meaningful activities. Eight focus groups with people with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia and informal carers were conducted using an exploratory study design. In study one, we identified meaningful activities and self-management support. In study two, we explored needs, wishes and abilities regarding the use of apps. The outcomes were analysed using inductive content analysis based on grounded theory. Three categories were identified in study one: (1) past meaningful activities, (2) present meaningful activities and (3) self-management support. Two categories emerged from the data of study two, with two and three themes, respectively. (1) Needs and wishes of users with regard to (a) the functionality of apps and (b) technical features of apps. (2) Abilities of users in terms of (a) physical and cognitive condition, (b) independent use of apps on a tablet and (c) skills to use the touchscreen and tablet. Based on these results, we will develop filters for people with mild dementia to select apps which match their individual needs, wishes and abilities.

“…Four studies, including two RCTs, focus on cognitive stimulation with predominantly positive results. [96][97][98][99] Two studies tested serious games with a quasi-experimental design aiming mainly at physical improvements in inpatient long-term care settings. While one of the studies reported positive results, 100 the other one found positive results on physical functioning but reported negative effects on emotional performance as a study result.…”

Abstract: The use of tablet computers was convincing as an activation therapy for nursing home residents with dementia. Further research and development of specially adapted software are required.
