| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A prospective cohort study over one year was conducted among older residents with dementia (n=312) using a questionnaire for care staff in 10 selected long-term care (LTC) facilities in Hokkaido. The baseline study revealed that the prevalence of BPSD in LTC facilities (percentage of people exhibiting at least one BPSD) in residents with dementia or similar symptoms was 64%. Agitation/aggression was the most common of the individual BPSD symptoms. Also, the factors related to the point prevalence of BPSD were found. The one-year period prevalence, cumulative incidence, persistence, and resolution of BPSD were estimated from 237 participants with complete follow-up.
