Abstract

Despite the potential benefits of remote cognitive assessment for dementia, it is not appropriate for all clinical encounters. Our aim was to develop guidance on determining a patient's suitability for comprehensive remote cognitive diagnostic assessment for dementia. A multidisciplinary expert workgroup was convened under the auspices of the Canadian Consortium on Neurodegeneration in Aging. We applied the Delphi method to determine 'red flags' for remote cognitive assessment of dementia. This resulted in 14 red flags that met the predetermined consensus criteria. We then developed a novel clinical decision-making infographic that integrated these findings to support multidisciplinary clinicians in determining a patient's readiness to undergo comprehensive remote cognitive assessment.

远程认知诊断评估的危险信号：一项德尔菲专家共识研究，由加拿大老年神经退行性变协会完成。

尽管远程认知评估对痴呆有潜在的好处，但它并不适用于所有的临床遭遇。我们的目的是制定指导方针，以确定患者是否适合痴呆症的综合远程认知诊断评估。在加拿大老年神经退行性疾病协会的主持下，召开了一个多学科专家工作组。我们应用德尔菲法来确定痴呆症远程认知评估的“危险信号”。这导致14个危险信号符合预定的共识标准。然后，我们开发了一种新的临床决策信息图，整合了这些发现，以支持多学科临床医生确定患者是否准备接受全面的远程认知评估。
