Summary

This trial uses a software to study patients' brainwaves to see if it's effective.

Who is the study for?
The SPARK Neuro REMIND Study is for individuals aged 55 to 85 with cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's, who have someone willing to report on their sleep and cognition. Participants must be able to consent and follow the study protocol. Exclusions include inability to stay still for EEG, certain medical conditions, substance use disorders, and specific medications.
What is being tested?
This trial tests the SPARK Test software used alongside an FDA-cleared EEG system. It aims to collect and analyze brain activity data (EEG) from participants in order to understand cognitive impairments better.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves non-invasive EEG recording with no medication involved, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort from wearing the EEG cap or sitting still during the test.
