Cognitive Performance Assays

Meaning

Cognitive Performance Assays are a set of standardized, quantitative psychometric tests utilized in clinical practice to objectively measure various domains of brain function, including executive function, processing speed, memory recall, and attention span. These assessments move beyond subjective patient reporting to provide tangible, measurable data on neurocognitive status. In hormonal health, these assays are crucial for tracking the impact of endocrine imbalances, such as thyroid dysfunction or sex hormone deficiency, on brain function. The resulting data guides targeted therapeutic adjustments to optimize neuroendocrine health.
