A Comparison of the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia and the Montgomery-Aasberg Depression Rating Scale in a Memory Clinic Population

Abstract: Background: The aim of this study was to explore the correlation between the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia (CSDD) and the Montgomery-Aasberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) among memory clinic patients. Methods: The CSDD (based on an interview with the caregiver) and the MADRS (based on the patient's opinion) were filled in independently of each other among 520 patients. Principal component and correlation analyses were performed. Results: The mean score of the CSDD was 7.6 (SD: 6.0), and the mean M… Show more

“…Symptoms of depression and dementia may overlap and often should be considered together [6,[16][17][18][19][20][21] . Hence, observational longitudinal studies on the outcome of DLL in different clinical settings are still warranted [4,10,22] .…”

“…In the original publication a total score above 7/8 has been suggested as cut-off, but no sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood ratios and accuracy values were calculated for that cut-off point or other cut-off points 216 . Cut-off points with the best sensitivity, specificity and accuracy vary among patient populations, cultural differences and study designs 220 . For example in a nursing home Norwegian population a cut-off 8/9 has the best accuracy for diagnosing ICD-10 major depression, a cut-off 10/11 has the best accuracy for DSM-IV-TR major depression while a cut-off 6/7 has the best accuracy for diagnosing depression in AD using the Provisional Criteria for Depression in Alzheimer…”

“…Moreover, the Swedish version of the scale used for this study is not validated in a Swedish population, most of the validation studies were in culturally similar populations from Norway 220 and Denmark 218 . However, the CSDD is the recommended tool for assessing depressive symptoms in people with cognitive impairment 238 , and has been shown good psychometric properties 220 . Throughout the thesis we used several cut-off points on CSDD to define depressive symptoms.…”
