Alzheimer’s test questions are now mainly for the determination of their intelligence and cognition, including the Simple Intelligence Scale and the Montreal Cognitive Scale, both of which test the patient’s memory, language, numeracy, orientation, recall, etc. The Montreal Cognitive Scale is a simple, easy-to-administer scale that can be used by people of all literacy levels.
1. Simple Intelligence Scale: suitable for people of all cultural levels, simple and easy to administer, but less sensitive.
2. Montreal Scale: Generally used for people with higher cultural levels, it has better sensitivity, but its specificity is relatively low.
Alzheimer’s disease is not only measured by intelligence test scale, but also by cranial CT, magnetic imaging and certain laboratory tests, which are based on the doctor’s questioning and the patient’s clinical symptoms, as well as other tests such as daily living scale, which cannot be diagnosed based on the results of a single scale.
If you suspect that you are suffering from dementia, it is recommended that you go to a regular hospital in time for active diagnosis and treatment to avoid delays in your condition.
