The early onset of cognitive impairment is between 50 and 60 years. Currently, in France, the Mini Mental State Examination remains the most used screening test, though it has a lower sensitivity and specificity than the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) for detecting mild cognitive impairment, taking an average of 15 minutes to complete. Aim: To investigate the feasibility of the MoCA during routine consultations in general practice for the early detection of cognitive impairment and to determine prevalence of cognitive impairment in a primary care setting. Design & setting: A quantitative, prospective feasibility study was carried out in real-life working condition during routine consultation. Method: GPs performed MoCA on adults aged 50 years and older, without suspected or confirmed cognitive impairment. Results and conclusion: 61 GPs performed 221 MoCA with a mean duration of 8 minutes and detected mild neurocognitive impairment in 62% of patients. The MoCA is feasible and easy to perform during routine consultations in general practice by trained and experienced physicians.Lire moins >
