背景资料：我们开发了一种新的痴呆症筛查测试，可在iPad上运行，可用于大规模筛查，称为痴呆症认知评估iPad版（CADi）。CADi由三个词的即时再认记忆、语义记忆、六个物体的分类、减法、数字的向后重复、立方体旋转、金字塔旋转、线索制作A、线索制作B和三个词的延迟再认记忆项目组成。本研究探讨了CADi.Methods的信度和效度：CADi的评估进行了痴呆患者，健康受试者从一个大脑检查系统，和社区居住的老年人参加health-checks.Results：CADi评分痴呆患者低于健康老年人，并与简明精神状态检查分数显着相关。Cronbach的α值的CADi是可以接受的（超过0.7），和重测信度被证实通过一个显着的相关性之间的分数分开一年的interval.Conclusion：这些结果表明，CADi是一个有用的工具，在日本人群中的痴呆症的大规模筛查。
Background: We have developed a new screening test for dementia that runs on an iPad and can be used for mass screening, known as the Cognitive Assessment for Dementia, iPad version (CADi). The CADi consists of items involving immediate recognition memory for three words, semantic memory, categorization of six objects, subtraction, backward repetition of digits, cube rotation, pyramid rotation, trail making A, trail making B, and delayed recognition memory for three words. The present study examined the reliability and validity of the CADi.Methods: CADi evaluations were conducted for patients with dementia, healthy subjects selected from a brain checkup system, and community-dwelling elderly people participating in health checkups.Results: CADi scores were lower for dementia patients than for healthy elderly individuals and correlated significantly with Mini-Mental State Examination scores. Cronbach's alpha values for the CADi were acceptable (over 0.7), and test-retest reliability was confirmed via a significant correlation between scores separated by a one-year interval.Conclusion: These results suggest that the CADi is a useful tool for mass screening of dementia in Japanese populations.
