Boston, MA - July 27, 2022 - Linus Health, a digital health company focused on transforming brain health, today announced that its groundbreaking brain health platform is generally available for healthcare delivery organizations across the US. Designed to facilitate early detection of brain disorders and proactive intervention, the SaaS-based platform combines robust digital cognitive assessments with actionable recommendations for providers and patients. With research linking up to 40% of dementia cases with modifiable risk factors, the practical, scalable, and accessible platform can unlock opportunities for millions of people to improve their cognitive trajectories. Given the growing role primary care providers (PCPs) will play in getting ahead of brain disorders, the platform was purpose-built to expand brain care delivery in primary care while streamlining PCP workflows.
Projections estimate that the number of people in the US with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias will more than double over the next 30 years – from 6M to almost 13M – as the population ages. The expected rise in brain disorders amplifies the need for timely detection and intervention – a key driver behind Linus Health’s mission. The Core Cognitive Evaluation™ is a cornerstone of the company’s new platform, delivering quantitative and qualitative insights about a person's brain health in under 10 minutes. It combines an objective, next-generation assessment – building on Linus' DCTclock™ test – with a digital questionnaire to provide visibility into both a patient’s current cognitive status and future dementia risk and inform recommendations for providers and patients.
The new platform incorporates and expands on Linus Health’s DCTclock, an iPad-based, AI-enhanced version of the long-standing paper-based Clock Drawing Test. Unique in its use of AI to analyze both a patient’s final clock drawings and their drawing process, DCTclock delivers greater sensitivity than traditional cognitive tests and earned recognition on TIME’s 100 Best Inventions of 2021 list.
