Objective:

To synthesize and contrast traditional neuropsychological tests, digital cognitive assessment tools, and digital biomarkers for cognitive evaluation.

Approach:

Key Findings:

• Traditional neuropsychological tests are time-consuming and require trained personnel.
• Digital cognitive assessment tools enhance accessibility and scalability.
• Digital biomarkers capture subtle cognitive changes through real-world interactions.
• AI-driven multimodal biomarkers show higher sensitivity for early Alzheimer’s detection.

Interpretation:

Digital cognitive assessments and biomarkers show promise for enhancing early detection and monitoring of cognitive decline, but practical feasibility in community settings needs further evaluation.

Limitations:

• Discrepancies in scores between digital and traditional tests.
• Variability in digital literacy among older adults.
• Lack of standardized scoring frameworks.

Conclusion:

Community nurses can enhance accessibility to digital cognitive assessments, but face operational challenges that need addressing.
