Study Summary

This study is an RCT to evaluate the effectiveness of Brain Safe on reducing anticholinergic exposure. Over 42 months, the trial will enroll 700 community-dwelling older adults who were prescribed one or more strong anticholinergics. Participants will be randomized to use the Brain Safe app or an attention control medication list app for 12 months, with monthly usage reminders.

Primary Outcome

To calculate the Total Standardized Daily Dose (TSDD), we first calculated the Standardized Daily Dose (SDD) for each anticholinergic medication with an ACB Score of 2 or 3. SDD was calculated by multiplying the strength by the units per dose and frequency per day and number of refills. The product was divided by the minimum effective daily dose (where available) or the minimum effective geriatric dose to standardize the quantity across multiple classes of medications. The SDD for all anticholin
