HOme-based Brain Monitoring With a GARment-EEG to Study Cognitive Decline in the Aging Population

• Diagnosis of Alzheimer's type dementia, based on a clinical and cognitive assessment conducted by a physician.
• Diagnosis of vascular or mixed type dementia, based on a clinical and cognitive assessment conducted by a physician.
• Lack of autonomy in: 1. basic activities according to the Barthel Index; 2. instrumental activities according to the Lawton Index. Both indices assess dependence associated with the diagnosis of dementia, distinguishing it from the diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment.
• Diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment, based on a clinical and cognitive assessment conducted by a physician.
• Preserved autonomy in: 1. basic activities according to the Barthel Index; 2. instrumental activities according to the Lawton Index. Both indices assess dependence associated with the diagnosis of dementia, distinguishing it from the diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment
• Adherence to SCD-I criteria.
• Attendance at primary care consultation with memory complaints lasting more than 6 months.
• Absence of a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment or dementia.
• Onset of subjective cognitive decline in the last 5 years.
• Concerns related to subjective cognitive decline (not associated with an acute event) expressed by the participant and/or an informant.
• Cognitive performance within the normal range on cognitive tests (MMSE (Mini Mental State Exam) \< 26 / MIS (Memory Impairment Screen) \< 6).
• No severe depressive symptoms, indicated by scores \> 17\* on the 30-item Geriatric Depression Scale.
• Cognitive performance within the normal range on cognitive tests (MMSE \< 26 / MIS \< 6).
• Absence of a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment or dementia.
• Not meeting the criteria for SCD-I \[21\].
• Independent person living in their own home.
• No subjective memory complaints.
