Evaluating the Accuracy of Web-Based and In-Clinic Subjective Cognitive Decline Assessments in Detecting Cognitive Impairment: Multicohort Study

Web-based ECog scores, both the full-length and short-form, were as valid as in-clinic ECog scores for identifying clinically diagnosed CI. In addition, Self-ECog12 was as effective as full-length Self-ECog to identify CI in a web-based setting, offering a cost-effective and accessible screening tool for large-scale studies. These results highlight the value of the web-based ECog as a valid tool for identifying older adults with CI in a remote clinical study, facilitating early detection and referral for comprehensive evaluations for identifying potential candidates for disease-modifying therapy.

Abstract

Web-based ECog scores, both the full-length and short-form, were as valid as in-clinic ECog scores for identifying clinically diagnosed CI. In addition, Self-ECog12 was as effective as full-length Self-ECog to identify CI in a web-based setting, offering a cost-effective and accessible screening tool for large-scale studies. These results highlight the value of the web-based ECog as a valid tool for identifying older adults with CI in a remote clinical study, facilitating early detection and referral for comprehensive evaluations for identifying potential candidates for disease-modifying therapy.
