A BrainCheck Case Study
Doctors Hospital at Renaissance (DHR), a health system serving a predominantly Hispanic population in Texas, faced significant challenges in standardizing cognitive assessment for its neurology patients. Limited access to neuropsychological services and the operational limitations of paper-based screening tools hindered their ability to effectively monitor cognitive decline in patients with conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS). They partnered with the vendor BrainCheck to implement a more scalable and detailed solution.
BrainCheck implemented its digital cognitive assessment tool, BrainCheck Assess, which is administered on an iPad and available in Spanish. This solution provided a standardized, multi-domain cognitive evaluation that could be used across various patient populations, including MS, Parkinson's, and dementia. The results included the completion of over 1,000 assessments in a single year, the establishment of a practical baseline and annual monitoring protocol, and a enhanced ability to detect cognitive progression independent of relapse activity. BrainCheck enabled the practice to achieve practice-wide standardization and more effectively monitor patient cognitive health over time.
