Pilot #5: Strategy for prophylactic brain health among middle-aged adult for risk of dementia

People often seek help for dementia when it’s too late for effective intervention. Dementia can begin 10-20 years before symptoms appear, so early education and prevention are essential. The pilot will identify at-risk individuals aged 40-60 through a network of GPs and neurocognitive clinics. Participants will undergo screenings, including questionnaires, medical interviews, physical exams, neurocognitive tests, and blood tests. Personalised recommendations will be provided, and community educational events on brain health will be held. After two years, participants’ physical and cognitive status will be reassessed.

Keys

Key outcomes include improved awareness, education, and prevention, with expected improvements in quality of life, user satisfaction, and cognitive functioning.
