Description: Assessment test to screen a patient for cognitive impairment that takes less than four minutes for the cognitive test and less than two minutes for the informant interview. The cognitive test includes nine items: (1) time orientation, clock drawing: (2) numbering and spacing as well as (3) placing hands correctly, (4) awareness of a current news event and recall of a name and an address ( (5) first name, (6) last name, (7) number, (8) street, and (9) suburb). Each correct answer is valid one point leading to a maximum score of 9 (fewer points indicate more impairment). (Wikipedia) The informant interview asks six historical questions from an informant/next of kin who knows the patient well. He or she is asked to compare the patient's current function with his/her performance a few years ago. Areas that are covered in the informant interview include memory, word finding difficulties, trouble managing finances, difficulties managing medication independently and needing assistance with transportation. Scoring: * 9 No Significant Cognitive Impairment * 8-5 More Testing Required * 4-0 Cognitive Impairment
