The early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) may help reduce disability and enhance quality of life through early introduce of multimodal therapy. This study evaluated the utility of the telephone interview which was compared in the evaluation of cognitive function in 55 patients of geriatric hospital, with the classical methods of neuropsychological diagnosis. Data demonstrates that TICS can be used as a simple and accessible method for the observation and estimation of cognitive status on early stage of dementia. Widespread tele-diagnostics of early phases of dementia and other functional deficits of the brain, connected with its aging, stands a chance of becoming a standard in the assessment of health condition of the elderly population, and of contributing to quicker provision of medical and community care for them.
