Abstrakt: |
Due to the persistence and complexity of problem behaviour in patients with dementia, doctors often prescribe psychotropic drugs for long periods of time. The need for psychosocial interventions in patients with dementia and psychological or psychiatric problems remains high and, according to the existing guidelines on problem behavior, they are the treatment of first choice. 5 years ago we described that the canopy-enclosed bed seemed to be able to meet this need. We observed that within a few weeks of patients getting a canopy-enclosed bed, psychotropic drugs could be reduced or even stopped. In this article, we would like to argue once again for more research into psychosocial interventions for problem behaviour. |
