Cognitive screening instruments provide clues for the localization of brain dysfunction, especially executive impairment. Highlighting the importance of early detection, Quick Cognitive Screening for Clinicians: Mini Mental, Clock-Drawing and Other Brief Tests focuses on those cognitive screening tests that can be carried out quickly and yet provide key information for the assessment, management, and treatment of these patients. This collaboration brings together the rapidly growing and overlapping fields of geriatric psychiatry and neuropsychiatry. The author explains how and when these tests should be used and helps synthesize the vast body of literature available in this area, providing clinicians with practical tools they will use on a daily basis.
