ALZHEIMER  CLINICAL EVALUATION  FORMS  AVAILABLE to download, complete, print:  The A-Screen is a test that is recommended for primary care practitioners to screen patients over the age of 60 years for possible cognitive impairment.  The MMSEs, as a group of items to be arithmetically summed, is no longer recommended by this site.  One alternative is to complete the form provided here and allow this form to calculate an estimate of the relative number of years into Alzheimer's disease suggested by the performance on the individual items.  The extended version, MMSEx, which provides a broader picture, is recommended for assessment of patients that do not pass the A-Screen.
