VIdeo Telehealth in ALzheimer's: NeuroPsychology (VITAL-NP) (VITAL-NP)
March 13, 2024 updated by: University of Colorado, Denver
Integrating Home-Based Video Teleneuropsychology Into Clinical Practice: Typical Versus Atypical Alzheimer's Disease
The overarching goal of this study is to a) assess the feasibility and preliminary validity of home-based delivery of TeleNP to patients with suspected Alzheimer's Disease (AD), referred for cognitive assessments in a Neurology Clinic; and b) elucidate whether TeleNP is equivalent to face-to-face evaluation (FF) for diagnostic adjudication of atypical versus typical AD.

Participation Criteria
Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
Eligibility Criteria
Ages Eligible for Study
60 years to 90 years (Adult, Older Adult)
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
No
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Individuals age 60 to 90 years who are undergoing evaluation for possible AD and whose severity ranges from MCI to mild dementia.
- Individuals must carry a diagnosis of either suspected typical AD or atypical AD, based on the referring neurologist's diagnosis.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Individuals with moderate to severe levels of dementia and individuals with active delirium (per neurologist's determination).
- Individuals who are legally blind or deaf, due to the auditory and visual components of the study.
- Individuals with a brain tumor and individuals who have a confirmed nonAD neurological diagnosis (e.g, Multiple Sclerosis; FTD).
- Individuals who are being evaluated outside of the UCH Memory Disorders Clinic.
- Individuals who report active (i.e., within the last 6 months) substance use of illicit drugs such as cocaine or methamphetamines, or who carry a diagnosis of a major psychiatric disorder (e.g., schizophrenia; bipolar disorder).

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Equivalence of Cognitive Test Results Across Testing Modalities as measured by Neuropsychological Test Mean Scores
Time Frame: After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
Norm-referenced Z-scores for clinically validated cognitive measures of Memory, Executive Functions, Language, and Spatial Abilities will be compared across both conditions.
|
After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
Equivalence of Neuropsychologist Diagnosis Across Testing Modalities as measured by Neuropsychologist-Determined Diagnosis
Time Frame: After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
Neuropsychologist-determined diagnosis (i.e., typical AD, atypical/complex AD, not AD) will be compared across both conditions whether TeleNP alters assessment of patient diagnosis.
|
After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
Equivalence of Neuropsychologist Appraisal of Severity Across Testing Modalities as measured by Neuropsychologist-Determined Severity
Time Frame: After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
Neuropsychologist-determined severity (i.e., subjective cognitive concerns; MCI; mild dementia) will be compared across both conditions whether TeleNP alters assessment of patient severity.
|
After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
Acceptability and Feasibility of Intervention Measures as measured by 4-item Acceptability and Feasibility of Intervention Measures Scale
Time Frame: After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
The 4-item Acceptability and Feasibility of Intervention Measures Scale is used for rating all participants and care partners' perspective on the acceptability and feasibility of the Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation as assessed using a 5-point Likert scale at Week 1 or Weeks 5-7, depending on randomization.
Scores range from "Completely disagree" (1) to "Completely agree" (5).
|
After the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation, at Week 1 and Weeks 5-7
|
Acceptability and Feasibility of Intervention Measures as Measured by 19-item UTAUT questionnaire adapted to TeleNP
Time Frame: After the exposure to the TeleNP evaluation (up to Week 7)
|
The 19-item UTAUT questionnaire adapted to TeleNP is used for rating all participants and care partners' perspective on the acceptability and feasibility of TeleNP evaluation as assessed using a 5-point Likert scale at Week 1 or Weeks 5-7, depending on randomization.
Scores range from "Strongly disagree" (1) to "Strongly agree" (5).
|
After the exposure to the TeleNP evaluation (up to Week 7)
|
User experience of patient and any associated care partners for each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation
Time Frame: 1 week after the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation
|
A subset of diverse patients (n=20) and any associated care partners will be invited to participate in semi-structured interviews with the research coordinator within one week of completing both FF and TeleNP conditions.
These interviews will focus on the participant's user experience, guided by UTAUT domains and specific attention to home setting and potential care partner involvement.
|
1 week after the exposure to each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation
|
User experience of neuropsychologist for each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation

|
The neuropsychologists will also participate in brief, separate interviews to garner information regarding feasibility, acceptability, and strengths/weaknesses of TeleNP after the completion of 20, 40, 60, and 80 TeleNP evaluations.
|
Up to two years
|
User experience of psychometrist for each health delivery conditions, Face-to-face evaluation (FF) and TeleNP evaluation
Time Frame: Up to two years
|
The psychometrist will also participate in brief, separate interviews to garner information regarding feasibility, acceptability, and strengths/weaknesses of TeleNP; these interviews will be conducted by Dr. Hillary Lum after the completion of 20, 40, 60, and 80 TeleNP evaluations.
