Download or read book CAMDEX-R Boxed Set written by Martin Roth. This book was released on 1999-04-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CAMDEX is a diagnostic assessment that provides a way to identify dementia, and to differentiate it from other common disorders and the normal processes of aging. It may be administered in the community or in the hospital by doctors or other mental health professionals. CAMDEX-R is the newly revised version of this internationally acclaimed instrument. For the first time, the range of information required for differential diagnosis of the varying forms of dementia is available in a single standardized interview and examination. CAMDEX-R consists of two structured interviews to ascertain the history and presentation of the disorder and a mini neuropsychological battery with a range of cognitive tests: CAMCOG. CAMCOG has been updated to cover more recently born cohorts and further examination of executive function. An IBM-compatible data input diskette to facilitate storage and analysis of results is also included.

Book Synopsis CAMDEX-DS by : Sarah Ball
Download or read book CAMDEX-DS written by Sarah Ball. This book was released on 2006-07-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CAMDEX-DS is a comprehensive assessment tool for diagnosing dementia in people with Down's syndrome (a group known to be at particular risk of dementia). Based upon CAMDEX-R, CAMDEX-DS has been modified for use with intellectual disability. In order to differentiate decline due to dementia or other mental disorders from pre-existing impairment, particular emphasis has been placed on establishing change from the individual's best level of functioning. The pack is comprised of a structured informant interview, a direct assessment of the patient/participant (CAMCOG), and guidance for diagnosis and post-diagnosis intervention, providing a reliable way to identify dementia (and to differentiate it from other common disorders). It may be used in community settings by mental health professionals as part of the diagnostic process, or to formalize diagnosis in the context of research. Use of the CAMCOG provides the means for ongoing neuropsychological evaluation and informs future support and intervention strategies.
