Zusammenfassung

Die vorliegende Leitliniensynopse umfasst die nationalen und internationalen Leitlinien, die bei der Erstellung der S3-Leitlinie »Demenzen« berücksichtigt wurden. Es werden die Kriterien für die Auswahl der Leitlinien, die systematische Bewertung der Leitlinien mit dem »Deutschen Instrument zur methodischen Leitlinien-Bewertung (DELBI)« und die von den Leitlinien angelegten Empfehlungsgraduierungen vorgestellt. Im Weiteren werden allen Empfehlungen der S3-Leitlinie »Demenzen«, für die eine Leitlinienrecherche durchgeführt wurde, die jeweiligen Empfehlungen mit Empfehlungsgraden und Literaturreferenzen aus den entsprechenden Leitlinien zugeordnet.
