Multicenter study to identify the main factors responsible for delayed or misdiagnosis in patients with Dementia with Lewy Bodies.
Studies show that dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is frequently missed or misdiagnosed – in the UK, only one in three cases is identified correctly, and many patients are initially given other diagnoses. This project harnesses routine healthcare data to investigate the factors contributing to these diagnostic delays and errors in specialised centres.
