Digital Technology to Support Adherence to Hypertension Medications for Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is characterized by mild impairment in one or more cognitive functions and is associated with an increased risk for failure to take prescribed medications.

Adherence is often only 46% or lower among PwMCI.
