Abstract

Introduction: Remote digital assessments (RDAs) such as voice recording, video and motor sensors, olfactory, hearing, and vision screenings are now starting to be employed to complement classical biomarker and clinical evidence to identify patients in the early AD stages. Choosing which RDA can be proposed to individual patients is not trivial and often time-consuming. This position paper presents a decision-making algorithm for using RDA during teleconsultations in memory clinic settings.

Method: The algorithm was developed by an expert panel following the Delphi methodology.

Results: The decision-making algorithm is structured as a series of yes-no questions. The resulting questionnaire is freely available online.

Discussion: We suggest that the use of screening questionnaires in the context of memory clinics may help accelerating the adoption of RDA in everyday clinical practice.

阿尔茨海默病远程数字评估的决策算法。

导言：远程数字评估（RDA），如语音记录、视频和运动传感器、嗅觉、听力和视力筛查，现在已开始被用来补充传统的生物标志物和临床证据，以识别早期老年痴呆症患者。为个体患者选择哪种 RDA 并非易事，而且往往需要耗费大量时间。本立场文件介绍了在记忆诊所远程会诊中使用 RDA 的决策算法：方法：该算法由一个专家小组按照德尔菲法制定：结果：决策算法的结构是一系列 "是 "与 "否 "的问题。由此产生的问卷可在网上免费获取：我们认为，在记忆门诊中使用筛查问卷可能有助于加快远程数字评估在日常临床实践中的应用。
