    Abstract [en]

    Dementia afflicts increasing numbers of an aging population. A number of complications follows, such as different unwanted behaviours that affect the quality of care. The aim was to investigate in which way different types of music might have positive effects on patients suffering from dementia, and thereby simplify and improve caring. The chosen method was a literature review. The chosen theoretical frame of reference was Katie Eriksson´s theory of caring. The analysis resulted in three themes: The effect of music with agitated behaviours on patients suffering from dementia, the type of music in caring of patients suffering from dementia and a theme concerning the effects of music in mealtime situations. The results revealed that music might have a positive effect on agitated behaviours and also on food intake in dinner situations. Music that is performed live has the best effect. The music should be suited according to each individual’s specific musical preference and each result should be evaluated separately. In the discussion has been concluded that music can be assumed to increase the wellbeing of patients suffering from dementia and thereby improve caring.
