Background The 5-Cog paradigm is a 5-minute brief cognitive assessment coupled with clinical decision support tool designed to improve clinicians’ early detection of impairment, including dementia, in their diverse older primary care patients. battery uses picture- and symbol-based assessments questionnaire. It low cost, simple, minimizes literacy bias, culturally fair. component the helps nudge appropriate provider response an abnormal battery. Objective objective our study evaluate effectiveness, implementation, cost paradigm. Methods We will enroll 6600 patients concerns from 22 clinics Bronx, New York, multiple locations Indiana for this hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation trial. analyze effectiveness increase rate new diagnoses mild impairment syndrome or dementia using pragmatic, cluster randomized trial design. secondary outcome ordering tests, treatments, referrals indications within 90 days after visit. 5-Cog’s be deployed as electronic medical record feature. implementation process, context, outcomes through Consolidated Framework Implementation Research mixed methods design (surveys interviews). also examine cost-effectiveness societal payer (Medicare) perspectives by estimating per additional diagnosis. Results funded National Institute Neurological Disorders Stroke Institutes Health (2U01NS105565). protocol was approved Albert Einstein College Medicine Institutional Review Board September 2022. A validation completed select cut scores Among 76 enrolled, resulting were follows: 32 (42%); 28 (37%); subjective without 12 (16%); no diagnosis assigned 2 (3%). mean Picture-Based Memory Impairment Screen 5.8 (SD 2.7), Symbol Match 27.2 18.2), Subjective Motoric Cognitive Risk 2.4 1.7). positive result on components ≤6 (range 0-8), ≤25 0-65), >5 0-7). As December 2024, total had onboarding processes, 2369 been enrolled. Conclusions findings facilitate rapid adaptation dissemination effective practical across settings.
