Takeaways
  • Researchers confirmed BrainCheck Assess is as accurate as the widely-used Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), with equivalent cut-off scores showing strong agreement in classifying individuals’ cognitive status. These findings confirm BrainCheck Assess offers a reliable alternative to the MoCA, offering accuracy on par with traditional screening tools, along with the added convenience of a device-agnostic digital test that can be taken in-office or at home, making cognitive assessments convenient for both patients and clinicians.
Takeaways
  • Researchers explored perspectives of primary care providers’ perceptions and experience of cognitive care planning with older adult patients and their loved ones and identified several implementation barriers and facilitators. Study findings provide critical insight into the care planning process, prompting the need for cognitive care planning tools integrated within the EMR, provider/patient/organization buy-in, and reassessing the current PCP practice model for older adults.
Takeaways
  • BrainCheck Assess was shown to be a good predictor of dementia severity, with ROC scores ranging from 0.73 to 0.92. Researchers also found when BrainCheck Assess is combined with the Activities of Daily Living (ADL), higher prediction accuracies are achieved.
