2 History of Development (Ashford 2008) Time Period Since 1930s Since 1960s Since 1975 Around 1989 Activities developed a wide variety of tests for assessing cognitive function and facilitating clinical screening for dementia many test developers have used classical test theory concepts (unweighted combinations of binary or graded responses [frequently including Likert scaling) to simple tests or questions many tests developed for assessing cognition, memory, and dementia, both for estimating impairment severity, for preliminary evaluation of diagnosis and for predicting dementia development Modern test theory (item response theory and item characteristic curve analysis, specifically estimating level of ability/disability on a defined continuum based on performance) provides a considerably more powerful approach for test development 1 st applied to the use of MMSE
3 Developing a Diagnostic Test for Dementia & AD What needs to be tested AD Memory is the fundamental focus on a unidimensional continuum Some other causes of dementia - similar to AD Other causes may lead to a different continuum, e.g. fronto-temporal dementia
4 Rationale The Challenge Dementia syndrome may appear heterogeneous until the underlying vulnerable factor is identified The Approach For screening purposes Multifactorial or empirical approaches when the basic mechanism is not understood For diagnosis More specific tests may be used, e.g., VaD affects white matter cortical connections
5 A Step-up Approach to Screening & Diagnosis Evaluation of memory function Further assessment of memory Brief ancillary testing for dysfunction e.g. agnosia, anomia, apraxia & executive impairment Determine the impact of cognitive dysfunction on social and occupational dysfunction
6 Screening Diagnosis Initial screening tests Short and sensitive tests More detailed assessment Definitive diagnostic evaluation Separate screens for related conditions e.g. VaD, alcohol dependence and depression Important for treatment determination
7 Tests for MCI & Dementia Screening Types Brief cognitive and memory tests Brief screening questionnaires from informants Global impression scales Telephone screening tests Non-specific brief cognitive tests Secondary longer screening tests & memory assessments Specialty neuropsychological assessments Developments in computerized testing Example Mini-Cog ADL/IADL CDR MMSE-telephone version Clock Drawing Test Mattis Dementia Rating Scale Wechsler Memory Scale CogScreen
8 Predicting AD Development Chen et al. (2000) A prospective study comparing presymptomatic subjects who later developed AD diagnoses with those who did not Delayed word-list memory & trail making tests had the greatest discriminative power A logistic combination of these tests provided optimum predictive probability of developing AD within 1.5 yrs Elias et al. (2000) A 22-year prospective study Identified retentive memory and abstract reasoning measures as the strongest predictors of further development of AD
9 Recommended Screening Tests (Ismail et al., 2010) Mini-Cog (Clock drawing & 3-item delayed word recall) Memory Impairment Screen (MIS) (4-item delayed freeand cued- recall) GP-COG (time orientation, clock drawing, report of a recent event, word recall) Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) (incorporate 5/6 of popular cognitive tests)
10 About the Gold Standard - MMSE Provides a minimal amount of information in the mild impairment range. Only the three recall items and the date provide relative discrimination at the mild end of the continuum, where discrimination is most critical for dementia screening (Ashford, 2008). Poor sensitivity and specificity for screening purposes, poor precision and high floor effect. Many studies found MMSE as less effective at discriminating between MCI patients and healthy age matched controls (Lonie et al., 2009)
11 The Newer Montreal Cognitive Administration time ~ 10 min Assessment (MoCA) High sensitivity for MCI (90%) & mild AD (100%) Specificity (87%) [Specificity of MMSE 100%] Freely a/v in 20 languages Useful for those with memory complaints but normal MMSE score
12 MMSE or MoCA? (Isamil et al., 2010) Characteristics 1.1 Those present with both cognitive impairment and functional decline [likely suffering from dementia] Test Approach Screen with MMSE 1.2 If MMSE is normal Administer MoCA (100% of patients with AD had an abnormal MoCA) 2. For those with cognitive impairment but with functional impairment likely either normal or have MCI not identified by MMSE Administer MoCA first
13 Problems with Screening Tests (Ashford 2008) The screening tests discussed so far do not adequately account for the probabilities of dementia. It is because cognitive function fails in older individuals as part of the continuum from normal aging to mild dementia. Part of the problem is that AD pathology exists in individuals without a diagnosis of dementia. Older individuals with these pathology changes may not even show any signs of cognitive impairment.
14 ROC Conceptualization of the Assessment Problem The true positive rate (Sensitivity) is plotted in function of the false positive rate (100-Specificity) for different cut-off points of a parameter. Performance curves for even the most discriminating tests will begin to overlap the normal distribution more and more with less and less pathological changes.
15 No Particular Tests are Preferable (Ashford 2008) There are numerous tests that have been studied for their efficacy in assessing individuals for the presence of cognitive impairment, dementia and AD. At this time, there is no one test that is clearly better than all of the others
16 Harm from Screening Complications from further testing Adverse effects of treatment Anxiety generated by investigation and treatment Cost and inconvenience Cost-efficiency The calculation of costworthiness indicates that support for annual screening beginning at 75 years of age. Can be as early as 60 years of age depending on risk factors and other considerations.
17 Population-based Screening? Despite the benefits of early detection, population-based screening based on age alone is not recommended (Kerwin, 2009). Guidelines recommend focused screening of patients in high-risk groups and on a case-by-case basis (US Preventive Services Task Force, 2003).

32 Summary The chief complaint of most clients is observable memory decline. Most come upon the urge of their family members. Some of the clients presented with a certain degree of agitation. Physical functioning was good in most clients. 76.2% clients were totally independent. Most clients demonstrated various degree of impairment in medication use (73.7%) and money management (65%) in their IADLs. Most of the clients were found to be very mildly cognitively impaired (CDR = 0.5; 42.9%) or mildly cognitively impaired (CDR = 1; 47.6%). Specific memory evaluation in early detection screening is crucial.
33 Assessment is not just about testing.
34 Clinical Decision Making Counts Impossible to solve each and every one of their problems in a single visit Deal with the most pressing problem first Highlight the areas that the patient and family were not aware of prior to the assessment Use our practice skills to help family in helping the clients
35 A useful approach to assessment The combination of information from: 1. cognitive testing 2. a knowledgeable informant 3. a clinician s impression Practice Recommendations (Kerwin, 2009) 1. Avoid cognitive screening solely on the basis of age (Strength of Recommendation 2. Screen vulnerable elderly people at their initial visit and annually thereafter 3. Ensure that all who undergo screening are tested for depression
36 Summing Up Our Service Clients & Families We serve a particular group of clientele During the telephone follow up, they were thankful to the service (1) for early detection of symptoms of cognitive impairment, and (2) useful and professional suggestions and advice Teaching Nursing Students (1) promote their awareness and knowledge of dementia (2) foster a positive attitude towards caring for clients with dementia and their families (3) enhance their communication skills with clients who are cognitive impaired (4) Identify health and social resources to help clients and their families
37 The Future (Ashford, 2008) A pressing clinical and academic need for a shorter, more effective, more efficient, and legally free brief assessment tool(s) Computerized testing will likely become more popular, and much more cost-effective than paper-and-pencil testing Screening for memory and other cognitive difficulties could become a monthly activity that would lead to a clinical visit for further assessment if an individual failed in particular criteria.

39 The BHU Position on Screening of Cognitive Impairment This telephone survey targeted at a population who would become vulnerable if cognitive impairment developed. They would then require additional support. Screening of MCI in the community in Hong Kong has become widespread; however MCI as a pre-dementia state require vigorous clinical evaluation. The treatment implications of being diagnosed as MCI is still being explored. Adequate diagnostic and psychological support should be available after being diagnosed. We advocate primarily early detection of early dementia and identify probable MCI secondarily during the process, but adequate diagnostic and psychological support should be available after an individual has been diagnosed.
