Tiivistelmä
Objective: This systematic review aims to identify, critically appraise, and synthesize the best available literature on
the experiences of people with progressive memory disorders who are involved in non-pharmacological interventions.
Introduction: Some non-pharmacological interventions have been demonstrated to have a significant effect in
reducing functional decline in people with progressive memory disorders. Additionally, there is evidence that people
with progressive memory disorders have a need for activities tailored to their abilities and interests.
Inclusion criteria: This review will consider studies that describe the experiences of people with progressive
memory disorders with non-pharmacological interventions. No limitations regarding care facilities will be made.
Methods: The databases to be searched will include PubMed, CINAHL, Medic, Scopus and PsycARTICLES, as well as
MedNar for unpublished studies. Studies published in English, Finnish and Swedish will be considered for inclusion in
this review, which will use a three-step search strategy. The papers selected for retrieval will be assessed by two
independent reviewers for methodological validity prior to inclusion in the review using standardized critical
appraisal instruments and findings will be pooled using meta-aggregation
