What is the practical utility of the MyCognitionPRO platform for monitoring and preventing cognitive decline in a real‐world context of people over 50years‐old experiencing cognitive ageing?

MyCognitionPRO is a CE‐marked digital health platform, offered as a subscription product by Beingwell Ltd; designed to help users self‐manage their cognitive health by combining cognitive assessment with personalised gamified training games. Reviews have highlighted computerised cognitive training as an effective non‐pharmacological intervention for enhancing cognitive functioning and quality of life of people with MCI or mild‐dementia (Hill et al., 2017; Bahar‐Fuchs et al., 2019). In a recent RCT, a now obsolete desktop version of MyCognitionPRO was used effectively by 21 Parkinson’s‐MCI patients (aged 40‐70 years) and caused a reversal in cognitive decline as compared to matched controls (van de Weijer et al., 2020). However, several real‐world trials investigating the effectiveness of the app‐based platform for people experiencing cognitive decline outside laboratory conditions indicate high rates of non‐adoption and non‐adherence in target users. The value of a digital health intervention is multi‐dimensional, relying on the willingness of end‐users, the capacity of features as well as its successful implementation in wider healthcare pathways (Kolasa & Kozinski, 2020).
