What It Measures

The Mini-Cog©; is a 3-minute instrument that can increase detection of cognitive impairment in older adults. It can be used effectively after brief training in both healthcare and community settings. It consists of two components, a 3-item recall test for memory and a simply scored clock drawing test. As a screening test, however, it does not substitute for a complete diagnostic workup.
