Several useful resource use and quality of life measurement instruments have been identified by this review. For resource use, CSRI was mostly used, but no studies have used Resource Utilisation in Dementia (RUD); for quality of life, we recommend the inclusion of dementia-specific DEMQOL, generic SF-12, and health utility EQ-5D-5L, based on both self-report and proxy-report.
