How does the indications for antipsychotic prescribing predicts outcomes in Dementia

People with dementia often experience symptoms that affect their behaviour, causing aggression, agitation and psychotic symptoms like delusions and hallucinations. Some receive antipsychotic medication which may be associated with higher mortality. This project aims to investigate how these antipsychotic medications and related symptoms at the time of dementia diagnosis are associated with dementia outcomes such as mortality, falls, stroke and cognitive decline.
