Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The primary outcome is the uptake (e.g. the percentage of eligible people that signed the online informed consent form and completed baseline risk assessment). The total number of eligible people in each recruitment group (active versus passive) will be based on the number of new cases of AD or VD (dementia patients) in all memory clinics during the recruitment period, assuming an average of one child per dementia patient. Monthly, the number of eligible participants (e.g. new cases of AD and VD) will be monitored using the medical records of each memory clinic.	—
