The ANAM Test System is a software only device that provides clinicians with objective measurements of cognitive performance to aid in the assessment of an individual’s level of cognitive performance. The ANAM Test System provides precise, objective, and repeatable automated measures of neurocognitive functions including response speed, attention/concentration, immediate and delayed memory, spatial processing, and decision processing speed and efficiency. It can be used to screen for general cognitive impairment within initial triage assessment/decision making or to obtain a more refined and detailed information regarding a person’s neurocognitive status. The battery is also specially designed for longitudinal assessment of cognitive functioning and can be used 1) to monitor progression of disease status; 2) to track cognitive change or recovery; and 3) to monitor the cognitive effects of medical interventions.The ANAM Test System provides both absolute and relative information about the test taker’s performance. Test performance following an injury, event, or intervention can be assessed by comparing a person’s test result to a previous testing point or to a pre-existing “baseline” if those data are available. If pre-existing testing data are unavailable, the ANAM Test System will provide a comparison of performance in relationship to a selected normative/reference group. The ANAM Performance Report software program will automatically provide comparisons to selectable reference groups as well as to the test taker’s previous testing data, if available.
