  6. Since March 2011: Portugal Centre for Evidence Based Practice: An Affiliate Centre of the Joanna Briggs Institute Goal Fulfilling the commitments established for the production of systematic reviews Scope The Centre will engage in both academic and practice aspects of evidence generation, synthesis, transfer and utilization. Our Centre will focus on evidence synthesis.

  8. Assuming that 60% of people with dementia living in high income countries, and 90% of those living in low and middle income countries have yet to receive a diagnosis, it is possible that up to 28 million of the world’s 36 million people with dementia do not receive evidence-based treatment and care. Prince M, Bryce R, Ferri C: World Alzheimer report: the benefits of early diagnosis and intervention. Alzheimer’s Disease International; 2011. http://www.alz.co.uk/worldreport2011

  9. Conclusions and Recommendations Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and cognitive stimulation may enhance cognitive function in people with mild Alzheimer’s disease, and these interventions should therefore be routinely offered. Cognitive stimulation may also be effective across dementia subtypes Prince M, Bryce R, Ferri C: World Alzheimer report: the benefits of early diagnosis and intervention. Alzheimer’s Disease International; 2011. http://www.alz.co.uk/worldreport2011

  10. Conclusions and Recommendations CS may also prove to be effective therapy for people with early stage dementia, either complementing treatment with AChEIs or as the main therapy to support cognitive function in those who do not meet evidence-based criteria for AChEIs CS targets cognitive and social function, through reality orientation, activities, games and discussions, prioritising information-processing rather than knowledge.

  11. 2012 AUTHORS’ CONCLUSIONS Consistent evidence that CSP benefit cognition in people with mild to moderate dementia over and above any medication effects. Trials were of variable quality with small sample sizes and only limited details of the randomisation method were apparent in a number of the trials. João Apóstolo

  13. CST Intervention Key Principles • 1. Using new ideas, thoughts and associations • 2. Using orientation (both sensitively and implicitly) • 3. A focus on opinions rather than facts • 4. Using reminiscence as an aid to the here and now • 5. Providing triggers to aid recall • 6. Creation of continuity and consistency between sessions • 7. Stimulatinglanguage • 8. Stimulating executive functioning being person Centered • 9. Multi-sensory stimulation

  14. The programme 1) 14, 45 minute sessions (2 x week, 7 weeks) 2) Participants asked to give a group name 3) RO board 4) Sessions begin with warm up exercise 5) Bridging between sessions, consistency in time, place, participants and facilitators 6) Presenting sessions in a fun and stimulating way CST trial (Spector et al., 2003)
