Validation of a Smartphone Application for the Assessment of Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment: MemScreen (MemScreen)

August 14, 2019 updated by: MemScreen

The clinical evaluation of a patient with a cognitive complaint requires neuropsychological tests, evaluating the integrity of memory and other cognitive functions.

The initial evaluation is made most often by a doctor (general practitioner). In case of need for further examination, a neuropsychological report is made in consultation memory by a neuropsychologist, with further cognitive tests.

The Cognitive Neurology Center at Lariboisière Hospital - Fernand Widal has developed a tool on a digital tablet or smartphone to evaluate cognitive functions: MemScreen.

The purpose of this study is to validate this new neuropsychological test on tablet compared to the neuropsychological reference tests.
