iPad / Medecine
The Functional Standardized Touchscreen Assessment of Cognition (FSTAC) is the first of it's kind in cognitive screening tools.
FSTAC provides 14 functional tasks for a person to complete and then provides a report on functional & cognitive performance.
One of the features that makes FSTAC so valuable is the integration of real life distractions, such as text messages, phone messages and noise. These distractions in the setting of a cognitively complex task provide the perfect setting to assess a person's cognitive abilities and breakdowns.
Clinicians can now observe their clients performing functional tasks that range from simple to complex utilizing current technology.
Cognitive domains include:
General Knowledge
Functional math
Auditory & Visual attention
Auditory & Visual Short term memory

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
Fix to the grocery item recall section that in rare situations gave the patient extra points for entering blank lines. If a client/patient pressed the 'next word' button in the grocery item recall section, and the therapist marked the blank entry as 'correct', the user would incorrectly be given an extra point.
