Background: Art therapy as a non-pharmacological approach has been used in the management of symptoms in people with dementia, improving cognitive and non-cognitive outcomes.
Objective: To identify art therapy modalities and their benefits when applied to people with dementia and who are community-dwelling or living in long-term care institutions. Design: Descriptive study protocol of a rapid review.
Methods: We will search in the search engines EBSCO (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, MEDLINE, and CINAHL) and Scopus to identify and select studies addressing interventions using art therapy modalities. The review will include studies published in the last 5 years in English. We will include any study that measured cognitive rather than cognitive outcomes. Two reviewers will independently screen the search results in the first 20%. Two reviewers will do risk of bias assessment on the first 5 studies, and one reviewer will do data extraction with verification of 10% of articles by a second reviewer (as per Cochrane guidelines for rapid review). The results will be synthesized narratively.
Conclusions: We intend to obtain evidence on art therapy modalities that contribute to implementing clinical intervention guidelines and training plans to support the management of dementia.
