second is the Information-Memory-Concentration test which is administered to the
patient.
Episodic memory is evaluated on the Information-Memory-Concentration test by
the 5-Minute Recall section and most questions on the Information section. By
contrast, the Personal Memory and Non-personal Memory sections sample remotely
learned information which is part of semantic memory.
Note that the number of impaired responses (or errors) are commonly reported for
the BDS, rather than the number of unimpaired (or correct) responses. Thus, the most
severely demented patient would score 28 on the caregiver scale and 37 on the
Information-Memory-Concentration test. For the caregiver scale, scoring less than 4
suggests that the patient is unimpaired; a score from 4 to 9 suggests mild impairment;
scores higher that 10 suggest moderate to severe impairment.59
For the Information-
Memory-Concentration test, less than 4 errors suggests no impairment, 4 to 10 errors
suggests mild impairment, 11 to 16 errors suggests moderate impairment, and greater
than 16 errors suggests severe impairment.60
As with the MMSE, when reporting the results of the BDS, we encourage
clinicians to report which items were missed in addition to the total score.
The 7 Minute Screen
Like the BDS, the 7 Minute ScreenTM
(7MS; see below) was also developed for
use in dementia. In 1998 Solomon and colleagues published the first report of a
screening assessment they developed consisting of four subtests: Orientation (month,
date, year, day, time), Memory (16 items, 4 at a time, cued and uncued), Clock Drawing,

and Verbal Fluency (naming animals in one minute).21
Unlike most tests, however, the
interpretation is performed automatically by entering the result of the four subtests into a
special calculator or web site (http://www.memorydoc.org), leading to a high or low
probability that the patient has Alzheimers disease. The calculated formula is based
upon the results of a logistic regression comparing sixty patients with Alzheimers
disease and sixty healthy control subjects. The 7MS demonstrates sensitivity, specificity,
test-retest reliability, and interrater reliability all greater than 90%. The test has been
validated in the primary care setting as a screening tool for patients over the age of
sixty,
61
and it has also been validated in other languages.

Advantages of this test include that it is sensitive, reliable, easy to administer,
takes little time, and the interpretation is performed automatically. Another advantage of
the 7MS is that both episodic and semantic memory are evaluated, episodic memory by
the Orientation and Memory subtests and semantic memory by the Verbal Fluency
subtest. Limitations include that it has been developed for and used in patients with or at
risk for dementia, and that a calculator is needed for interpretation.
If the result from the calculator reads HI, the patient has a high probability of
dementia characteristic of Alzheimers disease, and it is suggested that the patient
undergo a full diagnostic evaluation. It is cautioned (and we agree) that it is
inappropriate to diagnose Alzheimers disease based only on the results of the 7MS. If
the calculator reads LO, the patient has a low probability of dementia characteristic of
Alzheimers disease; in this circumstance the patient may or may not need further
evaluation depending upon the history and clinical setting. In less than 5% of cases the
calculator may also indicate that the data are insufficient to make a judgment; in this

situation either using other evaluation measures or re-screening the patient in 6 to 9
months would be appropriate.
Other tests
Although the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimers Disease
(CERAD) word list memory, recall, and recognition test was developed in part for
research studies, it has become one of the standards of care in clinical centers that
diagnose Alzheimers disease and other dementias.20
It consists of ten words to be
remembered which are repeated over three study-test trials, a ten minute retention
interval, a delayed recall test, and finally a twenty-word recognition test (ten studied and
ten unstudied words). There are several advantages to using this CERAD memory test.
Because separate scores are obtained for the encoding trials, delayed recall, correct
recognition, and false positive responses, it facilitates separating out performance on
these different aspects of episodic memory. Clinicians who are interested in using the
CERAD memory test can learn more about it and order materials from the CERAD web
site, http://cerad.mc.duke.edu.
The Drilled Word Span procedure,2,64
a useful bedside memory test, can be briefly
described as follows. First, the patients digit span (how many single digit numbers they
can repeat) is measured. Then, they are asked to memorize a list of words equal to one
less than the patients digit span. (For example, if their digit span is seven they are given
six words to remember.) The patient then recites the words back to the examiner, and the
process is repeated until the patient can recite the list correctly three consecutive times.
