Evaluation of the Electronic Clinical Dementia Rating for Dementia Screening.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

The Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) is a well-validated instrument widely used to detect and stage dementia due to Alzheimer disease. The digital Electronic Clinical Dementia Rating (eCDR) can be remotely self-administered and automatically scored, with potential to facilitate efficient dementia screening and staging.

Objective

To evaluate the association of the eCDR with the CDR and other in-clinic assessments for screening older adults for cognitive impairment.

Design, setting, and participants

This multisite, cross-sectional study used baseline data from a longitudinal, observational study from 2020 to 2023, including up to 3 years of follow-up. Participants were enrolled from 3 Alzheimer Disease Research Centers and the Brain Health Registry. Participant
