Summary

This trial will introduce a cognitive risk-calculator and screening tool in eight internal medicine clinics. They will collect data to see how often the tool is used and how it affects the way healthcare providers work.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for primary care settings within the Cleveland Clinic Health System. It's designed to assess how well a new cognitive risk calculator and screening tool work in real-world clinics. The study will look at whether these tools change how doctors manage dementia risks.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a cognitive risk calculator and an automated screening tool called BACH, aiming to improve early detection of dementia. Clinics are randomly chosen over time to start using these tools, allowing researchers to compare results across different stages.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves implementing assessment tools rather than medications or medical procedures, traditional physical side effects are not applicable. However, there may be indirect impacts on clinic workflow or patient experience.
