BrainFx

BrainFx helps with the questions.

“My kid is in sports, and all the team wants is a check-off list about concussions. How do I know if they had one already? I want them in sports, but I don’t want their brain to be messed up for life.”

“But my spouse is too young to have any cognitive impairments. Why doesn’t anyone listen to me? Oh, he is just depressed or lazy, they tell me. Stop being so controlling about everything.”

“My mom is in her 70s. She is getting more forgetful. Go to a neurologist, they say. Another label is thrown on her again. That doesn’t help. Now, what do we do to manage her symptoms? This situation is hopeless. Please don’t say that dirty word ‘Alzheimer’s!”

Time and time again, the results of traditional assessment tools do not always detect mild to moderate impairment in your brain. Skills that are needed for you to function independently are being missed, having a huge impact on physical and psychosocial changes.

This is where BrainFx can help.

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.

The mission of BrainFx is to make the invisible effects of brain disorders visible.

Monitoring your brain health should be as common as your annual physical. By using BrainFx’s interactive digital cognitive assessment, we can quickly understand your brains function and detect milder cognitive dysfunction.

Then, you can do something about it before it’s too late. The BrainFx assessment also provides you with a better understanding of how you are being affected.

Evidence is necessary for taking the right action.

By taking the 90-minute assessment BrainFx, you will be able to have the question of “now what?” finally answered.

Instead of getting the label, now you can do something about it, making you feel more empowered in your life.

BrainFx measures 30 cognitive skills plus psychosocial, physical, and sensory issues as well. It uniquely measures complex cognitive skills using real work context. By establishing a healthy baseline, your strengths and challenges can be monitored over time.

Early detection can lead to more timely treatment, and we will create a targeted care plan to help you take the right action.

What does a BrainFx Report provide?

You will receive a detailed history about an individual’s neurofunction from their perspective, and if so desired, the perspective of their family/friends can be obtained as well.

A BrainFx profile measures norms and tracks your performance on 30 functional skills and balance, as well as screening for sensory skills like hearing and vision that can confound cognitive performance.

Who can benefit from the BrainFx 360 assessment?

BrainFx 360 benefits proactive health-conscious people.

We monitor our physical health (weight, cholesterol, blood pressure) but not our brain health. Now we can.

Establishing a healthy baseline gives you rich information for referencing your brain after an accident, injury, disease, etc. occurs.

Understanding your strengths and challenges allows you to improve the way you function now.

Aging individuals living at home or assisted living facilities benefit.

It establishes a healthy baseline for seniors, so strengths and challenges can be monitored over time.

It allows for assessment of the outcome of intervention programs implemented with residents.

Monitoring the impact of new medication and medication changes on neurofunction can be evaluated.

Administering the assessment before entering into a group living situation helps establish eligibility and fit so that an individual’s stay has adequate planning.

Finally, it helps answer the “what’s going on?” question.

The family physician benefits.

Reviewing the BrainFx report in conjunction with your patient’s clinical history or another testing can quickly provide you with the information to assist with diagnosis and medications.

It helps decide about additional test recommendation, such as hearing, vision, sleep study, etc.

Referrals to other clinicians (such physical/occupational therapy, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, audiologist, ophthalmologist, etc.) can be made more accurately.

Sports-related individuals/organizations benefit.

Prior assessments are recommended for all athletes at risk of head injury because it establishes a healthy baseline. Otherwise, how will the healthcare team know how an individual functioned before the injury?

Early intervention means earlier treatment, which means improved quality of life.

Healthcare providers can recommend when an individual is ready to return to specific and targeted activity programs for cognitive as well as physical recovery.

Maintaining brain health begins with having the right evidence.

Gaining a baseline of brain function allows for solutions to identified problems to be resolved before it is too late.

BrainFx provides the data needed to assess changes that will most likely occur throughout your life.
