Using 5‐word Delayed Recall and Animal Naming as a highly sensitive and specific, ecologically‐valid, 3‐minute screen for primary care clinics
These data demonstrate that effective dementia screening in the primary clinic can be both practical and highly accurate compared to the gold standard of a full medical and neuropsychological evaluation but can be accomplished in a fraction of the time. Further work validating this screening tool in primary care clinic settings is underway currently.
