Tracking memory changes and personal independence over time
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study follows people who are newly evaluated in a memory clinic to better understand what predicts how memory and independence may change. It may help clinicians plan care that supports autonomy as the condition progresses.
