Brief report: Use of the Mini-Cog as a screening tool for cognitive impairment in diabetes in primary care

A J Sinclair et al. Diabetes Res Clin Pract. 2013 Apr.

Abstract

The Mini-Cog was shown to be a brief, acceptable and practical cognitive screen for older people with diabetes when administered by a primary care nurse. It could be integrated easily into the annual diabetes review and help to identify those who may benefit from extra help with their management.
