Ages & Stages Questionnaires (ASQ), Set of questionnaires tailored to detect alterations in development in young children. --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- American Academy of Pediatrics---Bright Futures Kit for health promotion and prevention published by the American Academy of Pediatrics that includes schedules for screening and care and a variety of questionnaires used to detect health problems, including developmental alterations. Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) Five-minute interview-style exam that screens specifically for signs of delirium. Pediatric versions are available for children 5 years and older (pCAM/psCAM-ICU for critically ill infants and children). Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium Validated, rapid observational tool for screening children in intensive care for delirium. Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia Nineteen-question tool that involves interviews with both patients and their caregivers; assesses for signs of depression in individuals known to have dementia. Edinburgh Depression Scale Validated 10-item questionnaire used to screen for the presence and severity of symptoms of postnatal depression. Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) Brief questionnaire (15 or 30 items) that asks patients how they've felt over the past 7 days; assesses for depression in older adults. Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HRSD) Twenty-minute, 17-question examination that assesses severity of depression in adult patients. The Weinberg Depression Scale for Children and Adolescents (WDSCA) and the Children's Depression Rating Scale (CDRS-R) are modeled on the HRSD and adapted for children over age 5. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) Thirty-question interview-style exam that assesses a patient's memory, language skills, attention level, and ability to engage in mental tasks; also known as the Folstein Mini-Mental State Examination. It may be modified for use in children over the age of 4. Montreal Cognitive Assessment One-page test that briefly assesses a patient's ability in a variety of cognitive domains, including problem solving and sequencing (traits, similarities), attention (digit span, letter vigilance), memory (word list, orientation), visuospatial construction and reasoning (cube, clock), and language (naming, repetition, word generation). Nonverbal Learning Disabilities (NVLD) Scale Assesses deficits in the areas of motor skills, visuospatial skills, and interpersonal skills. Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) Full-length 11-item tool that screens for depression and anxiety, somatic symptoms, and related disorders; abbreviated forms (PDQ-9 and PDQ-2) are used to more selectively screen for depression. Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS) Registered nurses and other licensed healthcare providers (HCPs) can administer to detect positive, negative, and other manifestations of psychotic disorders and schizophrenia. May be useful in screening for peripartum psychosis. Postpartum Depression Predictors Inventory (PDPI) Validated short inventory that can be integrated into all phases of perinatal care to predict the risk of maternal depression.
