OBJECTIVE

To explore the experts’ opinion on the feasibility of using Mini-Kog, MMSE and GPCOG tests for screening assessment of cognitive impairment in elderly and senile patients at the primary stage of medical care, as well as to compare different characteristics of these tests according to experts’ opinion.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The survey of specialists was carried out on the basis of 6 Medical Centers. Prior to the survey, specialists tested cognitive functions in elderly and senile patients during routine visits undergoing routine admission using Mini-Kog, MMSE and GPCOG tests, as well as interviewed their relatives using the corresponding section of the GPCOG. During the survey, specialists filled out a special physician checklist containing items for indicating socio-demographic information and questions regarding the use of tests for assessing cognitive functions in elderly and senile patients in daily clinical practice.

RESULTS

The survey involved 40 specialists from different cities of Russia (mean age±SD — 38.6±14.3 years, 82.5% — women). Elderly and senile patients accounted for the predominant proportion (76-100%) of all followed-up patients. All physicians considered it important to conduct a cognitive assessment in elderly patients and they have to use various cognitive tests in their practice. According to most experts, among the Mini-Kog, MMSE and GPCOG tests, all three tools are informative, convenient and suitable for screening cognitive impairment in geriatric patients. The MMSE test is more informative and convenient. Mini-Kog, compared to the other two tools, is the simplest and most time-efficient tool that is also better perceived by patients. An advantage of the GPCOG is the possibility of participation of informants in the assessment of cognitive functions in older patients.

CONCLUSION

The findings could be used in further research focused on improving the approaches for early detection of cognitive impairment in geriatric patients by primary care physicians.
