Mini‐mental state exam for telephone aplication in high‐educated socially‐engaged older adults: A descriptive study

The study found good agreement between the BRAZTEL-MMSE applied by telephone and the traditional Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) applied face-to-face in an assessment of cognitive performance of older adults. These results suggest the BRAZTEL-MMSE has potential as a useful valid tool for cognitive screening in contexts where face-to-face assessment is impractical, including for participants of long-term clinical trials.

Abstract

The study found good agreement between the BRAZTEL-MMSE applied by telephone and the traditional Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) applied face-to-face in an assessment of cognitive performance of older adults. These results suggest the BRAZTEL-MMSE has potential as a useful valid tool for cognitive screening in contexts where face-to-face assessment is impractical, including for participants of long-term clinical trials.
