Lucid episodes in people with advanced dementia: characterizing caregiver reports to advance definition and measurement of episodes
Findings suggest that definitional features may universally specify a significant return of ability with more flexible criteria for how this return manifests in observed actions and domains of recovery (i.e., insight, function, and communication). The impact of LEs on observers may be better measured separately, although further research should explore this.
