Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Nov 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Dementia, a chronic disease of aging, is characterized by progressive cognitive decline that interferes with independent functioning. The medical, psychological, social and functional sequelae of dementia cause great stress to patients, their caregivers, and their family. The investigator proposes to examine effectiveness of a home-based care coordination and management device, called Care4AD (Nili device) to help caregivers effectively coordinate, manage, and improve dementia care.
