Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1This trial is listed as completed and was focused on detecting Alzheimer's and related dementias digitally — has any data or results been published yet that my doctor thinks are worth reviewing for my situation?
2Since this study was measuring how often Alzheimer's and related dementias were detected, rather than testing a treatment, does my doctor think participating in a similar detection-focused study could actually change or improve my care plan?
3This trial was Phase NA, which often means it's more of an observational or feasibility study rather than a treatment trial — can my doctor help me understand what that means for how useful the findings might be to me personally?
4Since recruitment is already completed for this trial, are there any similar digital detection studies currently enrolling that my doctor would consider appropriate for me to look into?
5Given that this study used digital tools to detect dementia, are there any of those digital screening or monitoring approaches my doctor is already using or recommending in my care, based on what research like this has shown?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
