Cognitive Function Test "Atama no Kenko Check®" Rinku Town Clinic

Background of Introduction

The guidelines published by the Japan Society of Brain Dock, which promotes dementia prevention, now list the implementation of cognitive function tests as a mandatory item, indicating the importance of lifestyle disease management from middle age. Furthermore, the "Guide to Preparing for a Life with Dementia" published by the Alzheimer's Association Japan also recommends that everyone be sensitive to changes in their physical condition in preparation for getting older and potentially developing dementia.

Against this background, Rinku Town Clinic will provide opportunities to widely grasp the state of cognitive function from middle age, and at the same time, will promote awareness in the community of habits to maintain brain health through the improvement of lifestyle diseases and the enhancement of lifestyle.

Background of Introduction

Today, dementia has become a major health concern for the future. Recently, medical treatments for early-stage dementia have also been developed, and early detection of mild cognitive impairment has become an important key to addressing dementia.

Under such circumstances, the "Atama no Kenko Check" has the characteristic of being able to evaluate cognitive function quantitatively and objectively. Furthermore, we thought that it would be useful for the early detection and treatment of cognitive impairment by concurrently advancing the management of lifestyle-related diseases such as hypertension and dyslipidemia, and therefore adopted it at our clinic.

Lifestyle-related diseases (adult diseases) such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis, and cancer, which have been increasing in recent years, are said to be diseases that often progress without subjective symptoms. For early detection, early treatment, and prevention of diseases, we recommend undergoing a health checkup and comprehensive medical examination at least once a year.

If abnormalities are found in the results, we also provide follow-up care at the outpatient clinic.
