The frequency, nature, context, and caregivers' reactions to aggressive behavior in 213 dementia patients residing in the community was studied. Aggression was reported in 57.2% of the patients and in 10.6% of the caregivers. Predictors of patient aggression were greater frequency of behavior and memory problems, premorbid aggression, and a more troubled premorbid social relationship between patient and caregiver. Patient aggression predicted the decision to discontinue home care.
对居住在社区的213名痴呆症患者的攻击性行为的频率、性质、背景以及护理人员的反应进行了研究。报告显示，57.2%的患者以及10.6%的护理人员存在攻击行为。患者攻击行为的预测因素包括行为和记忆问题出现的频率更高、病前有攻击行为，以及患者与护理人员之间病前的社会关系更麻烦。患者的攻击行为预示着停止居家护理的决定。
