Machine Learning Detection of Cognitive Impairment in Primary Care

Routine cognitive screenings in primary care settings can benefit patient care and preventive medicine in multiple ways; however, their integration to the protocol of physical exams, as a standard of care, may be hampered by systemic considerations related to labor and cost. In an effort to decrease these impediments, the current study evaluated the validity of a screening procedure that had been specifically designed to impose minimal burden on the clinic.
