Digital Screening for Mild Cognitive Impairment and Vascular Cognitive Impairment
Early detection of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), especially the vascular subtype, is becoming increasingly important as populations age and the burden of dementia rises globally. Approximately 12% to 18% of people age 60 or older are living with MCI, and an estimated 10% to 15% of individuals living with MCI develop dementia each year — many of which could benefit from timely intervention to slow or prevent further cognitive decline.
This digital solution offers a non-invasive, self-administered cognitive screening tool that can be completed in just 15 minutes via a mobile device or tablet. It uses a series of interactive, neuroscience-informed digital tasks to assess multiple cognitive functions, including working memory, attention, processing speed, and executive function. These areas are particularly relevant in identifying different subtypes of MCI, such as those related to vascular causes.
The system’s proprietary algorithm analyzes the user’s performance and has been clinically validated in Southeast Asia, achieving 89% accuracy with strong specificity and sensitivity. Its objective, performance-based design makes it suitable for deployment across various healthcare settings—from hospitals and clinics to insurers and community screening programs.
By offering a quick, engaging, and scalable method for cognitive screening, this solution supports earlier identification of cognitive changes and provides actionable insights that can help guide appropriate follow-up care based on the individual’s cognitive profile.
