Adaptation française d'un outil d'évaluation par téléphone des troubles mnésiques : le French Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status Modified (F-TICS-m)

We report on the development of a French version of a telephone interview cognitive screening test used to identify cognitive impairment. First, we reviewed 25 studies related to telephone interviews. Then, we decided to develop a French version of the “Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status” (TICS) which is the most commonly used test. The validation study is now being conducted by the Inserm so that the test can be used for epidemiological studies.
