Patient Priorities Care Among Persons Living With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia

DementiaMild Cognitive Impairment

The goal of this pragmatic, embedded clinical trial is to analyze the implementation of Patient Priorities Care in primary care and geriatrics clinics with patients living with dementia or mild cognitive impairment. This study aims are: demonstrate the feasibility of using the electronic health record to identify a diverse cohort of eligible patient and patient-care partner dyads who will engage in a Patient Priorities Care conversation with a trained facilitator. demonstrate feasibility of pragmatically assessing clinical outcomes using the electronic health record, including a) number of days at home, b) total medications, and c) new referrals to specialist physicians. examine key feasibility measures across racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic subgroups. Participants will receive a packet of information about Patient Priorities Care from their primary care clinic, in advance of their next upcoming clinic appointment. Individuals who receive a packet will have the opportunity to engage in a conversation about what matters most to them and what their priorities are, with trained facilitators at the clinic.

Single-center Prospective Longitudinal Study of Taste in Patients With Cognitive Disorders at Different...

Cognitive Disorders

The aim of the MAPEG 2 study is to explore gustatory function and to follow its evolution in the 5 following groups of participants: Healthy subjects Participants with isolated cognitive complaint Participants with minor neurocognitive disorder Participants with mild Alzheimer-type major neurocognitive disorders Participants with moderate Alzheimer-type major neurocognitive disorders For this purpose, we want to compare the results of the following tests: Subjective taste tests (tasting solutions, answering food preference questionnaires), Gustatory evoked potential (GEP) parameters, recorded by electrodes placed on the scalp, And nutritional parameters (hormones of food intake by blood test, measurement of the global body composition). Identifying and following the evolution of early taste disorders in case of cognitive disorders could improve the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease in two ways: To allow an early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, and thus improve its management, To define groups of subjects at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease in later years.

The Imperial Comprehensive Cognitive Assessment in Cerebrovascular Disease (IC3)

StrokeStroke (CVA) or TIA5 more

Stroke is a major cause of death and disability worldwide, frequently resulting in persistent cognitive deficits among survivors. These deficits negatively impact recovery and therapy engagement, and their treatment is consistently rated as high priority by stakeholders and clinicians. Although clinical guidelines endorse cognitive screening for post-stroke management, there is currently no gold standard approach for identifying cognitive deficits after stroke, and clinical stroke services lack the capacity for long-term cognitive monitoring and care. Currently available assessment tools are either not stroke-specific, not in-depth or lack scalability, leading to heterogeneity in patient assessments. To address these challenges, a cost-effective, scalable, and comprehensive screening tool is needed to provide a stroke-specific assessment of cognition. The current study presents such a novel digital tool, the Imperial Comprehensive Cognitive Assessment in Cerebrovascular Disease (IC3), designed to detect both domain-general and domain-specific cognitive deficits in patients after stroke with minimal input from a health professional. To ensure its reliability, we will utilise multiple validation approaches, and aim to recruit a large normative sample of age-, gender-, and education-matched UK-based controls. Moreover, the IC3 assessment will be integrated within a larger prospective observational longitudinal clinical trial, where post-stroke cognition will be examined in tandem with brain imaging and blood biomarkers to identify novel multimodal biomarkers of recovery after stroke. By leveraging this rich dataset, our study will allow more precise targeting of cognitive rehabilitation to stroke survivors that are most at risk of progressive cognitive decline and have the greatest potential for recovery.

Personalized Lifestyle Intervention for Improving Functional Health Outcomes Using N-of-1 Tent-Umbrella-Bucket...

HealthSubjective6 more

The LIFE-HOUSE research project is designed to evaluate the impact of a personalized lifestyle intervention program on functional capacity as an approach to quantitating health, and its relationship to well understood disease risk determinants. LIFE-HOUSE will utilize an innovative Tent-Umbrella-Bucket design. Participants will gather under the Tent of an all-inclusive 'N of 1' Case Series providing a shelter of Functional Medicine interventions against the storm of chronic disease. Under this Tent are a collection of Umbrellas where participants with similar clinical challenges are evaluated as clinically defined groups with loose guidelines for the planned interventions. Finally, participants standing under these Umbrellas may step into specific Buckets that gather individuals with nearly identical clinical presentations into more formally described prescriptive randomized arms for intervention. Individuals will be offered the opportunity to participate in all Umbrellas and Buckets for which they qualify. They may accept or reject participation in any Umbrella or Bucket and yet remain eligible for participation in the overall Tent.

Double-task Exercise in Older Adults at Risk of Cognitive Decline (MeMo-Health-Cog-3 Program)

Cognitive DeclineVascular Health

Cerebral small vessel disease is a frequent cause of cognitive disability among older adults (OAs) in Mexico that imposes a significant burden on the health system and OAs' families. We have called the program Mind and Movement for Cognitive Health (MeMo-Salud-Cog-3). Programs to prevent or delay OAs' cognitive decline are scarce. Methods and analysis: A double-blind, randomized clinical trial will be conducted. The study will aim to evaluate two 24-week double-task (aerobic and cognitive) square-stepping exercise programs for OAs at risk of cognitive decline-one program with and another without caregiver participation-and to compare these with an aerobic-balance-stretching exercise program (control group). 255 OAs (85 per group) affiliated with the Mexican Institute of Social Security (IMSS) between 60 and 65 years of age with self-reported cognitive concerns will participate. They will be stratified by education level and randomly allocated to the groups. The intervention will last 24 weeks, and the effect of each program will be evaluated 12, 24, and 52 weeks after the intervention. Participants' demographic and clinical characteristics will be collected at baseline. The outcomes will include: (i) general cognitive function; (ii) specific cognitive functions; (iii) dual-task gait; (iv) blood pressure; (v) carotid intima-media thickness; (vi) carotid arterial compliance; (vii) OAs' health-related quality of life; and (viii) caregiver burden. We will estimate differences in outcomes between each intervention group and the control group at baseline and follow-up evaluations. We will assess differences-in-differences (D-in-D) treatment effects using a D-in-D estimator. If we identify statistically significant differences in participants' baseline characteristics between the groups, we will adjust the D-in-D estimators by these covariates using generalized linear regression models. Ethics and dissemination: The study was approved by the IMSS Ethics and Research Committee (registration number 2018-785-095). All participants will sign a consent form prior to their participation. The study results will be disseminated to IMSS authorities, healthcare providers and the research community.

Subjective Cognitive DeclineCognitive Performance2 more

The objective of this study is to simultaneously establish the metrological characteristics of the new executive function markers (decision making and multiple flow management) derived from repeated ERP variations and to identify their ability to test whether a short treatment using Ginkgo biloba versus placebo extracts can modify the cognitive performance and functional capacity of patients in the very early stages of age-related cognitive decline. This trial, using subjects as their own control (cross-over) in repeated measurements will establish the reproducibility characteristics of the measurements and intra-individual variations of ERP over time in this population
