Summary

Efficient and user-friendly paradigms to detect cognitive impairment, including dementia are needed in primary care. The TabCAT Brain Health Assessment accurately detects cognitive impairment via an appealing tablet interface with automated scoring and EMR integration. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of the paradigm on detection rates and other brain health outcomes via a pragmatic cluster randomized trial in 26 Kaiser Southern California primary care clinics.

TabCAT Brain Health Assessment Clinical Pathway

Primary care providers concerned that their patients are exhibiting signs of cognitive decline will refer them to clinical associates who will then perform the TabCAT-BHA tablet-based test. The TabCAT-BHA paradigm comprises 7-10 minutes of tablet-based testing and an optional 3-minute self-administered informant survey captures behavioral symptoms and change from baseline. The results are available to the PCP in the EMR along with turnkey guidance to evaluate for reversible causes, identify and involve a care partner, make and disclose diagnosis, provide community and educational resources, and make medical referrals as appropriate. Nursing support is available to support the PCP in making the diagnosis and to consult to the family via telephone post-diagnosis to address immediate care needs.
