Patient Information
Navigating today’s increasingly faster paced, interconnected, and competitive landscape presents all of us with encounters, challenges and changes that can affect our neurocognitive and behavioral health.
CNS Vital Signs provides clinicians and researchers with leading edge neurocognitive and behavioral health assessment technologies that efficiently collects valid and reliable brain & behavioral clinical endpoints for a more objective view of their patient’s functional status, disease progression, and outcomes.
“Neurocognition” refers to the higher brain functions: learning, remembering, concentrating, solving problems, and making decisions. Neurocognitive processes are active in virtually all of our day-to-day activities.
Neurocognition begins with our genetic uniqueness and the maternal health given early in life. Environmental factors begin contributing to our neurocognitive or brain health… the nurturing, training and support we receive early in life helps set a neurocognitive and behavioural development trajectory that can impact us the rest of our lives. Environmental factors such as nutrition, diet, exercise and sleep have been shown to be important factors in influencing our brain and behavioural status.
Our neurocognitive function… which is not easily measured… advances during our early years of development and either growth is realized or brain-behaviour barriers start to impair or impede our potential.
Our maximum neurocognitive potential is generally realized in the young adult stage of our lifespan… however, environmental factors continue to interact with our genes creating a trajectory for brain health that contributes to our overall wellbeing and quality-of-life throughout our lifespan.
Collectively our brain and behavioral health status is vitally important for the healthy functioning of families, communities and society. Together, they fundamentally can affect our individual success and happiness and collectively our general prosperity.
