Remote Game-based Exercise Program for Cognitive and Motor Function Improvement
Recruiting
As our population ages, more older adults face motor-cognitive declines, increasing their risk of falls and fear of falling. Exercise is an effective way to maintain cognitive function, as supported by recent studies. However, those with poor motor and cognitive abilities often struggle to visit rehabilitation centers, leading to high dropout rates and low adherence to unsupervised programs. A remote exercise program tailored for individuals with cognitive impairments is urgently needed to prese... Read More

A Technology-Driven Intervention to Improve Early Detection and Management of Cognitive Impairment
Recruiting
Most experts advocate for early detection of cognitive impairment (CI) so that patients and caregivers can be prepared for making difficult decisions and to improve quality of life, but studies show that screening alone isn't sufficient to change clinician actions related to early detection. Using predictive modelling developed with machine learning methods and sophisticated clinical decision support (CDS) tools, it is possible to identify patients at elevated risk for CI and make it much easier...

Financial Incentives and Recruitment to the APT Webstudy
Recruiting
This single-blind, three-arm, randomized, controlled trial will assess the impact of messages and financial incentives on the enrollment of demographically diverse individuals to the Alzheimer Prevention Trials (APT) Webstudy. The APT Webstudy is a novel, online registry that employs quarterly cognitive testing using validated platforms. The APT Webstudy implements fully remote assessments, coordinated by the Alzheimer's Therapeutic Research Institute (ATRI) under USC IRB #HS-17-00746. The purpo... Read More

Quality Improvement and Clinical Utility PrecivityAD2(TM) Clinician Survey
Recruiting
There is a major unmet need for timely, non-invasive, and low-burden evaluation of patients presenting with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia. MCI impacts 12-18% of people in the United States over age 60 years (Alzheimer's Association. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) available at https://www.alz.org/alzheimers-dementia/what-is-dementia/related_conditions/mild-cognitive-impairment. Accessed August 16, 2022). MCI does not substantially interfere with daily activities, although complex... Read More

Treatment of Stress and Anxiety in MCI/Mild ADRD
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a computerized anxiety sensitivity treatment (CAST) compared to a health education control (HEC) in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias (ADRD) and their care partners. The main questions it aims to answer are: Efficacy of CAST in reducing anxiety and related symptoms among those with MCI/mild ADRD Efficacy of CAST in reducing care partner burden among care partners of...

Genetic Studies in Familial Dementia
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to identify genetic factors that contribute to or cause dementia (loss of memory) and related disorders across all ages and ethnic groups. This includes a number of neurological diseases such as early and late-onset Alzheimer disease, mild cognitive impairment, and other dementias.

A Music-Based Mobile App for People Living With Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD)
Recruiting
The purpose of this pilot is to develop a mobile application that detects physiological measures of individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and triggers auto-play of personalized songs in a wearable device. The investigators will test the feasibility and acceptability of the app. This app may be an important tool to include in daily caregiving in a home setting by extending established benefits of music therapy for people with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.

ToolBox Detect: Low Cost Detection of Cognitive Decline in Primary Care Settings
Recruiting
Our study objective is to widely implement and evaluate a user-centered, scalable, electronic health record (EHR)-linked strategy for the routine detection of cognitive decline among diverse primary care settings. This strategy, called ToolboxDetect, will provide an efficient and sensitive cognitive screen that can be easily implemented in everyday clinical settings, and is responsive to patient, family, and caregiver concerns for potential symptoms of cognitive decline (CD) and cognitive impair...

Paradoxical Lucidity in Severe End-Stage Dementia
Recruiting
Cognitive decline in dementia is considered irreversible, however episodes of paradoxical lucidity (PL) in severe dementia suggest other mechanisms may be in play. Beyond anecdotal reports of transient PL events occurring in patients predominantly in late-stage dementia and typically lasting anywhere from a few minutes to several hours, little is known about PL. The study team proposes to develop and conduct a mixed methods prospective study of PL during end stage advanced dementia, creating a d... Read More
