Abstract

The Save Your Brain Quiz was created to address the increasing rates of cognitive decline and dementia in society today. It targets risk reduction in patients who do not yet have mild cognitive impairment. As patients live longer lives, cognitive decline continues to increase as a major health problem - Alzheimer’s disease is the 6th leading cause of death in both Iowa and the United States. As there is no definitive treatment yet, prevention is of the utmost importance.
