The utility of the Ascertain Dementia Eight-item Questionnaire (AD8) and Mini-Cog in detecting cognitive impairment in older surgical patients – The Detect CI study
Although the AD8 and Mini-Cog demonstrated comparable diagnostic accuracy for CI, the AD8 provided additional insights into preoperative patient-centered assessments and 90-day adverse outcomes. Our study emphasizes the importance of preoperative screening for CI, highlighting the AD8 as a valuable tool.
