Computerized Neuropsychological Test Battery CogniSoft for Assessment of Cognition in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

Cognitive dysfunction is a leading cause of disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) and is associated with unemployment, need of assistance with daily activities and poor quality of life. The introduction of neuropsychological testing and monitoring of cognitive status as part of the overall evaluation of MS patients in parallel with clinical and paraclinical parameters is highly recommended. Recent studies have demonstrated a better perception and preference for computerized cognitive tests than classic variants, with no significant difference in results. In accordance with global trends, a bilingual computer system CogniSoft for assessment and rehabilitation of cognitive status in persons with MS has been developed, including: 1) a set of diagnostic tests for evaluation of memory and executive functions based on the nature of Brief International Cognitive Assessment for MS (BICAMS); 2) a set of games for cognitive rehabilitation. Questionnaire for depression (Beck Depression Inventory – BDI-II) will be filled before conduction of the neuropsychological tests for differentiation of possible depression which could interfere with the results. The CogniSoft information system will incorporate two approaches for evaluation of neuropsychological results which will allow early detection of cognitive impairments in these patients, which will initiate timely cognitive rehabilitation.
