Objective: The objective of the study is to determine the level of concordance between the MMSE, SPMSQ and MoCA tests for the screening of cognitive impairment in older adults through the Kappa index between the three tests. Material and methods: Retrospective cohort study in people attended in the Geriatrics service of the Naval Medical Center "Cirujano Mayor Santiago Távara", selected by convenience. A total of 1683 patient were included, taking as points of cut to determine cognitive deterioration a score higher than 4 in SPMSQ; a score lower than 26 in MoCA; and a score lower than 25 in MMSE. Cohen's Kappa Index was used, using a value of 0.8 as an indicator of good concordance between them. Results: The MMSE was the test that found the largest number of patients with cognitive impairment, giving 43.32% of the total. A good level of concordance between the MMSE and MoCA tests was observed (Kappa index: 0.99 IC95% 0.99 - 1.00 p <0.01), and a discordant result between the MoCA and SPMSQ tests (Kappa index: 0.42 95% CI 0.38 - 0.46 p <0.01); and the MMSE and SPMSQ tests (Kappa index: 0.42 IC95% 0.38 - 0.46 p <0.01) Conclusion: The MoCA and MMSE tests maintain an excellent concordance between them. While, the result of the SPMSQ test is discordant with respect to the others (MMSE / MoCA).
