Research Abstract |
The assessment of cognitive function of brain damaged patients is different from the elderly as well as dementia Brain damaged patients reveal various aspects of cognitive dysfunction by some variables of the damaged region, brain pathology, the process of illness and so on. We designed the brief neuropsychological test battery (Ryukyu University Version) on the basis of some conditions in view of the above described background factor. We have analyzed global cognitive dysfunction of the brain damaged patients using the modified MMSE(3MS) in comparison with normal subjects. We showed the profile of cognitive dysfunction of brain damaged patients with 3MS in terms of the variable of damaged region, pathology, pre-post operation and so on. Moreover, the Stroop test and the Trail making test which is sensitive to the dysfunction of the prefrontal neocortex, including one of our brief neuropsychological test battery, were conducted on many brain damaged patients and the normal subjects to standardize these data. We also have analyzed the aspect of cognitive function of brain damaged patients with this standardization.
