Study Summary

This study is a randomized, controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the effect of Brain CareNotes (a mobile health application) on the burden experienced by unpaid caregivers of patients with dementia and on the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) displayed by care recipients. Over 39 months, the trial will enroll 184 caregivers of community-dwelling patients diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia (ADRD). Caregivers will be randomized to use the Brain CareNotes app or an attention control education-only app for 12 months, with usage reminders.

Primary Outcome

The burden experienced by caregivers caused by their caregiving responsibilities measured by the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) caregiver distress sub-score. The distress score is calculated by adding the distress score for each of the 12 items of the NPI. A score of 0 would indicate that the BPSD cause no distress while a score of 60 would indicate that each symptom causes severe distress for the caregiver.
