We tested the efficacy and cost-effectiveness in people living with dementia (PlwD) and caregivers.We analyzed data from 417 PlwD within the multicenter, cluster-randomized InDePendent trial six months after baseline. Specifically, qualified nurses carried out advanced dementia care management individually tailored to each patient's and caregiver's needs.
