ObjectiveTo systematically review the methodological quality of evidence-based guidelines on non-pharmacology management of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia, so as to provide references for taking caring for the dementia with behavioral and psychological symptoms. MethodsGuidelines concerning non-pharmacology treatment of behavioral and psychological symptoms were searched from websites of guideline development, websites of medical association and literature databases from inception to May 31st 2016. The methodological quality of included guidelines were evaluated according to the AGREE Ⅱ instrument, and the differences and similarities between recommendations of included guidelines were compared. ResultsA total of 544 literatures were identified and 6 of them were included. All the included guidelines were from abroad. The average scores of guidelines in six domains of AGREE Ⅱ were:scope and purpose 88.89%, stakeholder involvement 65.74%, rigor of development 63.72%, clarity of presentations 86.11%, applicability 50.69%, and independence 37.50%. The overall qualities of the included guidelines were grade B. The recommendations of the included guidelines were almost consistent. Recommended non-pharmacology management of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia included leisure and recreation activity, reminiscence therapy, behavioral therapy, training of caregivers, physical environment modification, animal-assisted therapy, massage, physical activity and patient-centered approach. ConclusionThe overall quality of included guidelines is relatively high. More efforts are needed to improve the applicability and independence of guidelines. There is still no local guideline concerning non-pharmacology recommendations on behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia in China. It is suggested to develop guideline that is suitable for Chinese condition as soon as possible.
