Summary

This study looks at whether wearable devices like smartwatches and rings can detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment. Researchers will track 150 adults aged 65 and older, monitoring things like sleep, heart rate, and activity over 30 days. The goal is to see if these patterns, combined with standard tests, can help identify people at risk earlier. This is an observational study, meaning no treatment is given—it's about improving detection.
