Implementation of an App-Based Dementia Risk Assessment

Year: 2025

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: Dementia is a growing global health issue, and early identification and intervention are crucial for delaying or preventing its onset. Traditional memory clinics often lack the capacity for continuous monitoring and personalized feedback on lifestyle changes that can reduce dementia risk. Digital technologies, especially mobile apps, offer a solution to this gap. This paper presents the development of a dementia risk assessment tool within the LETHE mobile app, part of a European initiative to prevent cognitive decline in at-risk elderly individuals.
