Feedback in clinical education is essential but challenged by multiple barriers. This report describes the use of myTIPreport, a web-based tool, which streamlines the dual purpose of milestone evaluation and real-time feedback from faculty to residents in a US anesthesiology program. In a 6-month trial, faculty members and residents used myTIPreport for daily clinical feedback. We believe myTIPreport will be a valuable tool for clinical feedback given further refinement of the tool and improved faculty and resident development on program use.

Preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD) trials can involve multiple years of follow-up and burdensome procedures for older individuals. Optimizing the design and conduct of these trials requires input from participants and their families. Since 2020, the Alzheimer's Clinical Trials Consortium (ACTC) Research Participant Advisory Board has provided input on study attributes including: participant and study partner compensation, consent language, and result communication tools.

Background: To bolster clinical trial infrastructure, there is a need to develop novel, valid, and reliable patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures capable of tracking clinically-relevant changes in Alzheimer's disease (AD), Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia over time. This research describes the development and validation of the Alzheimer's Disease-Health Index (AD-HI) as a tool to measure how patients feel and function in response to therapeutic intervention.
Method: We previously conducted semi-structured qualitative interviews and a national cross-sectional study with individuals with AD, MCI and dementia to ascertain the most prevalent and impactful symptoms identified by the participants.

Background: Screening for elder abuse can cause victims to experience feelings of unpleasantness and/or relive painful memories which can be an ethical concern. Ensuring the safety of all participants/users, in our case long-term care (LTC) residents, is of the utmost importance.
Method: Drawing from approaches used in the intimate partner violence and clinical trials literature, we developed a novel typology of harm and a series of procedures to evaluate any negative consequences that might be incurred as a result of participating in the Piloting the Elder Abuse Suspicion Index-long term care: A Mixed Methods Feasibility Study.

Background: With increased for promoting neuroplasticity in older adults through Cognitive training (CT), the study aimed to develop culturally relevant caregiver-driven model of CT for dementia called the Individualized Cognitive Augmentation Regimen for Elderly (iCARE).
Method: The study has three phases- 1. Development Phase- Included a) literature review, b) item generation, c) expert rating, d) field trial (n = 3), and e) feedback and modification.

University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA, USA.
Background: The increasing population of older adults and growing number of disease-modifying therapies for Alzheimer's disease (AD) highlight the need for timely differential diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders despite high referral volumes. This study aimed to develop and pilot a brief neuropsychological battery to evaluate cognitive functioning in adults with suspected AD and improve service delivery by reducing the time between referral and diagnosis.
Methods: Patients were referred to the "early AD pathway" by their neurologist or geriatrician after an initial evaluation in an outpatient multidisciplinary dementia clinic.
