Cognitive screening instruments: time for retirement.
Cognitive screening instruments are used daily in clinics devoted to the assessment of cognitive disorders and also in general neurology clinics where patients with complaints of memory disorder may be encountered. However, these instruments have significant theoretical and practical shortcomings that are generally overlooked or ignored. In pursuit of biological rather than nosological diagnosis, and in light of these shortcomings, I recommend that cognitive screening instruments should now be abandoned.
期刊介绍:
The essential point of Practical Neurology is that it is practical in the sense of being useful for everyone who sees neurological patients and who wants to keep up to date, and safe, in managing them. In other words this is a journal for jobbing neurologists - which most of us are for at least part of our time - who plough through the tension headaches and funny turns week in and week out. Primary research literature potentially relevant to routine clinical practice is far too much for any neurologist to read, let alone understand, critically appraise and assimilate. Therefore, if research is to influence clinical practice appropriately and quickly it has to be digested and provided to neurologists in an informative and convenient way.
