Background: Knowledge about the priorities and preferences of people living with dementia (PwD) might help to individualize treatment, care, and support, which could improve patient-related outcomes. This study aimed to summarize preferences of PwD or people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), considering all relevant aspects of health care and everyday life.
Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review and included studies about patient preferences published in English between January 1, 1990 and October 28, 2019.
Background: Treatment decisions based on guidelines rather than patients' preferences determine adherence to and compliance with treatment, which, in turn, could improve health-related outcomes.
Objectives: To summarize the stated treatment and care preferences of people with dementia (PwD).
Methods: A systematic review was conducted to assess the stated preferences of PwD.
