Abstract

This study describes the development of DailyCog: an accessible, practical smartphone application for the detection of mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease. Cognitive impairment in Parkinson's has been capturing researchers interest lately, as it may occur at early stages of the disease, and has a substantial impact on quality of life. In order to find the best markers of the initial stage of the cognitive decline we developed DailyCog - a smartphone application for the detection of mild cognitive impairment. This work focuses on the design considerations while working in a multidisciplinary team, building a common understanding, and bringing together knowledge from Occupational Therapy, Neurology and Computer Science to build an application for evaluating Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) in Parkinson's Disease.
