This results in both underassessment and undertreatment of pain, signaling the need for better pain recognition in persons with dementia. A promising form of pain assessment is digital monitoring, which can concurrently and more objectively detect and use numerous relevant pain cues.</jats:p>                   </jats:sec>                   <jats:sec sec-type=\"objective\">                     <jats:title>Objective</jats:title>                     <jats:p>This review aimed to identify observable cues of pain, which could be used for digital pain monitoring. A total of 2 research questions (RQs) were formed as we set out to examine which digital cues offered a valid insight into pain in people with dementia (RQ1) and identify how these cues were originally measured (RQ2).</jats:p>                   </jats:sec>                   <jats:sec sec-type=\"methods\">                     <jats:title>Methods</jats:title>                     <jats:p>A standard methodological approach for scoping reviews was used.

The gathered data were analyzed using a thematic analysis, which involved categorizing the observable cues into higher-order categories.</jats:p>                   </jats:sec>                   <jats:sec sec-type=\"results\">                     <jats:title>Results</jats:title>                     <jats:p>Of the 3705 publications identified in the search, 34 satisfied the inclusion criteria and were closely examined. Addressing RQ1, we identified 7 categories of behavioral and physiological cues associated with pain, most frequently facial expressions (20/34, 59%) and body movements or expressions (15/34, 44%). Several subcategories for each main category of pain cues were also identified, each involving between 1 and 28 relevant specific pain cues. Addressing RQ2, 29/34 (85%) studies assessed pain cues via human observation only, while 5/34 (15%) combined human observation with either facial recognition software, PainChek app, or computer vision.</jats:p>                   </jats:sec>                   <jats:sec sec-type=\"conclusions\">                     <jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title>                     <jats:p>The review
