Conclusions: These preliminary findings are promising for the large scale randomized controlled study we are currently conducting, in which 800 participants will be included. Data collection on the large-scale study is expected to be completed by April 2019 and results of the entire study will be presented during the AAIC 2019. We can use these results to inform an evidence-based practice recommendation for amyloid disclosure in a clinical setting.
