The efficacy of cognitive interventions on the performance of instrumental activities of daily living in individuals with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis

DiscussionThis systematic review and meta-analysis will determine the effectiveness of cognitive interventions in maintaining or improving the performance of IADL in individuals with MCI or mild dementia. It is anticipated that the results will inform rehabilitation professionals of the most effective cognitive interventions to be implemented into clinical practice. It will potentially provide substantial benefit to both the persons with MCI or dementia and the health care system by keeping more people out of full-time care and allowing those in full-time care to require less intensive support.Systematic review registrationPROSPERO CRD42016042364
