However, a survey of individuals with elevated amyloid-beta, a putative biomarker for Alzheimers risk, found that only 20% of respondents would consider PAS in this context, suggesting that there is a mismatch between the theoretical values espoused in the literature and the actual wishes of patients in this context (Largent et al., 2019). doi:10.1097/YCO.0000000000000523, Fekadu, A., Wooderson, S.

Besides these two cultural dimensions, the dimension of uncertainty avoidance was negatively correlated with approval of euthanasia. Favourable attitudes towards PAS appear to be strongly conditioned by cultural and economic conditions and are far from universal. Is Physician-Assisted Death Possible for People with Dementia? Advocates of PAS in dementia could credibly respond to the three preceding sections by suggesting that the practice should be confined to patients with severe or terminal dementia, where the patients life expectancy is already low and there is little or no scope for improvement (Mondragn et al., 2020). These are not independent of each other; for example, a survey of African-Americans found that several factors, including their cultural and spiritual values and their attitude towards the healthcare system, influenced their lower preference for euthanasia or PAS (Wicher and Meeker, 2012). The issue is highly controversial. Care 20, 171178. doi:10.1177/0269216315582143, Tomlinson, E., and Stott, J. and transmitted securely. According to the European Association of Palliative Care (EAPC)s Ethics Task Force, assisted dying is an umbrella term that encompasses both euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide. Euthanasia refers to an active intervention by the physician, involving the killing of the patient by the intentional administration of drugs. Psychiatry 29, 384394. In this survey, attitudes towards euthanasia in population samples from these countries were assessed by asking participants whether this practice should be legal in all cases, in selected cases, or never.

How Patients with Mild Dementia Living in a Nursing home Benefit from Dementia Cafs: a Case-Control Study Focusing on Psychological and Behavioural Symptoms and Caregiver burden. In The Netherlands voluntariness and The presence of these symptoms is associated with an increased risk of harm to patients themselves (for example, through wandering away or refusal of food or medications) and their caregivers (for example, in the case of aggression or sexual disinhibition). Handb Clin. Elaborating on these points in a further review (Sulmasy et al., 2018), the same author draws on the same argument, and further adduces arguments that have been discussed earlier in this paper, such as the limits of autonomy, the distinction between active killing and passive denial of particular treatments, the social ramifications of suicide and assisted suicide, and the possibility of a slippery slope characterized by incremental extension. Based on these, he concludes that the medical profession should continue its opposition to PAS on both prudential and ethical grounds. Penn Bioeth. Similarly, a sample of the Dutch general public, 40% of respondents considered PAS unacceptable even in advanced dementia; disapproval was stronger in older subjects and in those with higher self-reported religiosity (Brinkman-Stoppelenburg et al., 2020).

The World Values Survey, a global research project that collects information on values, beliefs and attitudes from different parts of the world and analyzes changes in these parameters over time, collected information on attitudes towards euthanasia for all causes, across 28 countries, in the period 20142018 (World Values Survey, 2021). It has already been noted that, paradoxically, approval of PAS in cases such as dementia is higher in high-income countries. Basic research is beginning to elucidate the molecular mechanisms associated with specific types of BPSD (Scassellati et al., 2020; Degawa et al., 2021; Kobayashi et al., 2021); novel therapeutic strategies are being developed and evaluated (Magierski et al., 2020); and in some cases, non-pharmacological strategies may also be safe and effective (Abraha et al., 2017; Wang et al., 2019).
