The Geriatric Depression and Dementia Scale (GDDS) application automates screening patients for depressive symptoms and identifying warning signs for cognitive impairment and dementia in clinical settings. The Scale includes the 15-item version of the Geriatric Depression Scale and pairs it with a 15-item evaluation that helps to identify dementia warning signs. The GDDS performs these tasks in 10 different languages (English, Arabic, Armenian, Chinese, Farsi, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog, and Vietnamese) and also provides spoken prompts for patients that have vision impairments or those that struggle with the written word. It was developed by faculty at Stanford University School of Medicine and the VA Palo Alto Health Care System with funding made available by the State of California.
