A new era in cognitive assessment

As research on lifestyle interventions expands and new treatment options emerge, timely detection of cognitive impairment has never been more important. However, providers have lacked the solutions needed to incorporate cognitive assessments into routine care.

BrainCheck Assess addresses this gap, offering a trustworthy tool to evaluate and track cognitive health over time – from any device, in any location.

By detecting subtle signs of cognitive impairment, which may have association with dementias, including Alzheimer’s disease, providers can accelerate discovery, unlocking the powerful benefits of early intervention.

Trusted tools, transformed

Check memory with immediate and delayed recognition

Immediate and delayed recognition tests assess the ability to recognize previously seen items, determining function in the temporal, frontal, parietal, and occipital lobes.

Measure attention with Trails A and B

Trails A & B are widely used neuropsychological tests that measure visual search speed, scanning, processing speed, mental flexibility, and executive functioning. These tests provide insight into cognitive function in the frontal lobe, and also in the parietal and occipital lobe.

Evaluate executive function with the Stroop Color and Word test

The Stroop Color and Word test measures reaction time required to overcome cognitive interference. This proven test assesses function primarily in the frontal lobes.

Executive function illustration

Assess mental flexibility with Trails B

Trails B is an established neuropsychological test that evaluates cognitive flexibility, attention, visual scanning, and memory by assessing ability to switch between numbers and letters while connecting circles in ascending order.

Evaluate processing speed with Digit-Symbol Substitution

The Digit-Symbol Substitution test measures processing speed and accuracy. This proven test assesses function primarily in the frontal lobes.

Key things to know and discover about cognitive assessments.

Why is a cognitive assessment important for patients?

Cognitive assessments are crucial to empower early detection of cognitive impairment. Studies show 40% of dementia is preventable by addressing modifiable risk factors and making simple lifestyle changes. Early intervention maximizes the window of opportunity and can significantly improve outcomes and quality of life.

How can providers assess cognitive function?

Traditionally, cognitive assessments have been conducted using paper and pencil tests, such as the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and the Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE) – but digital solutions like BrainCheck Assess have revolutionized this process. Now, providers ranging from primary care to specialists can conquer the constraints of outdated assessments and easily evaluate patients’ cognition, on any device, in any location.

What information does a cognitive assessment provide?

Cognitive tests evaluate brain function to identify potential signs of impairment, but the insights provided may vary. To ensure accurate results, it is important to measure cognition comprehensively. BrainCheck Assess evaluates a range of key neurocognitive domains, including memory, attention, executive function, and mental flexibility. It highlights areas of strength and weakness, tracks changes over time, and helps guide clinical decisions with detailed, actionable insights.

What is BrainCheck Assess and how does it work?

BrainCheck Assess is a FDA Class II medical device that easily and objectively detects subtle signs of cognitive impairment, which may have association with dementias including Alzheimer’s disease. Leveraging clinically-validated digital versions of familiar screeners, it empowers providers to precisely measure performance across multiple cognitive domains – offering the most flexible and convenient solution.

Is BrainCheck Assess reimbursable?

Yes, BrainCheck Assess is fully reimbursable, enhancing practice profitability while improving patient care. The platform includes support for billing and reimbursement processes, ensuring that clinicians can provide high-quality cognitive assessments without financial barriers.
