Research studies conducted in the past 20 years have failed to validate the effectiveness of bright white light treatment of sleep disorders in nursing home or long-stay hospital residents with dementia. This trend is documented in a Cochrane Collaboration meta-analysis of 10 selected studies where problems in the research methodologies were identified. The prevalence of sleep disorders among residents diagnosed with dementia varies from 40% to 70%.
