Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) Face-to-face Interview With the Patient Clinical Trial
Official title:
Reliability of the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale From the Medical Record in Comparison With the Reference Method.
The assessment of severity of the cognitive and functional impairment is essential in the follow-up of patients with neurocognitive disorders and in the assessment of the effectiveness of therapeutics. However, the systematic assessment of the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) scale is limited due to the time required to complete it (approximately 45 min to 1 hour). Insofar as studies have shown correspondences between the CDR and scales measuring cognitive and neuropsychological performance, and as part of memory consultations, several functional and neuropsychological scales are systematically administered, we wish to conduct a study validating the feasibility of the CDR based on information already available in the patient's file compared to the evaluation of the CDR by the usual method (face-to-face interview in consultation). This study should highlight the feasibility of scoring the CDR-SB from the files of patients in memory consultation, first in terms of reliability of the scores obtained compared to the standard evaluation, and on the other hand in terms of organization and duration of administration.
