Dementia Risk Tool

Obtenez une estimation de votre risque de développer la démence dans l'avenir

The Dementia Risk Tool mobile app is a self-assessment tool that allows users to get an estimate of their risk of developing dementia in the future. The app poses a series of questions, concerning their lifestyle and medical condition, and then calculates a dementia risk score based on the answers. As a result the app also indicates which plausible factors that users can consider addressing in order to lower the score, e.g., increase their physical activity.

The tool uses for instance the Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging, and Incidence of Dementia (CAIDE) risk score model to predict the risk of developing dementia in the future among middle aged and elderly people, see for instance https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16914401.

The Dementia Risk Tool was developed jointly by Ageing Research Center at Karolinska Institute and RISE SICS, within the EIT-funded MULTI-MODE project 2016-2018, https://www.eithealth.eu/multimode.
