Mini Mental State Examination

A copy and key to the "Mini Mental State Exam" (MMSE) has been uplodad to the COORS website.
The key explains what to ask for and how to score the test.  Since we have touched on cognition preservation so often, It makes sense to have a copy to better understand what is tested and how.
This is the test that most US physicians use to check a patient's cognition status.  Full points are 30.
A baseline score is needed then a pattern is established by repeat testing.  A decreasing score indicates
progressive cognition decline.  Prevention is the key!
