Questions for testing dementia are commonly used in the form of Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MCAS), Vascular Dementia Assessment Scale (VDAS), and Functional Communication Evaluation Scale (FCES).
1. Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MCAS): It includes assessment of memory, spatial perception, executive ability, etc., and is commonly used for screening of dementia patients. However, this scale requires a higher level of cultural background and testing environment, and the subjects need to have a certain degree of cultural knowledge.
2. Vascular Dementia Assessment Scale (VDAS): This scale focuses on the measurement of executive functioning in people with vascular dementia, and can differentiate the type of dementia.
3. Functional Communication Scale: This scale assesses the patient’s listening comprehension and reading and writing skills, and is used by healthcare professionals in the field of dementia or by dementia caregivers to assess the functional communication skills of patients with dementia.
Depending on the cultural background of different regions, the questions for testing dementia are slightly different. If you experience symptoms such as memory loss, emotional instability, or personality changes, please go to a specialized hospital in time to avoid delaying your condition.
