disease and MCI-specific technologies and technologies in development. They frequently mention non-specific, popular technologies. Conclusions: Our findings suggest there is room for the development and utilization of technology in Alzheimer’s disease and MCI: 1) Existing technology is being utilized/helping patients and caregivers to assist with the management of Alzheimer’s disease and MCI. 2) There is a need for technology to help patients with functional impairments including ADL, and a need for technology to evolve in interventions/feedback as the patient’s symptoms and impairments progress. 3) More studies are needed to determine if technologies can delay progression of Alzheimer’s disease and MCI and/or improve the quality of life for patients and caregivers.
