This study aims to systematically evaluate the efficacy of mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) in improving mental health and quality of life for people with dementia. Comprehensive literature search was performed using the PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL databases from their inception till June 26, 2019. In total, nine articles met the eligibility criteria and were included. The results of the meta-analysis showed a statistically significant decrease in depressive symptoms (SMD = -0.39, 95% CI: - 0.62 to - 0.15), in people with dementia who were treated with MBI. However, there were no significant improvements in anxiety, stress, or quality of life. These findings suggest that MBI is a promising alternative to conventional interventions in the treatment of depression among dementia patients and warrant further study.
本研究旨在系统评估正念干预（MBI）对改善痴呆患者心理健康和生活质量的疗效。通过对 PubMed、EMBASE、Web of Science、Cochrane Library 和 CINAHL 数据库自成立至 2019 年 6 月 26 日的全面文献检索，共纳入 9 篇符合条件的文章。荟萃分析结果显示，MBI 治疗的痴呆患者的抑郁症状（SMD=-0.39，95%CI：-0.62 至 -0.15）有统计学意义下降，但焦虑、压力或生活质量没有显著改善。这些发现表明，MBI 是痴呆患者抑郁治疗中传统干预的一种有前途的替代方法，值得进一步研究。
