At-Home brain tests could revolutionize neurological diagnosis
NCT ID NCT05819008
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether a new digital test battery, Mindmore Distance, can accurately assess thinking and memory skills in people with neurological conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, or multiple sclerosis. Researchers will compare results from home-based computer tests with standard in-person tests. If the digital version works well, it could make cognitive testing more accessible for patients who live far from hospitals.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could allow patients to get reliable cognitive testing from home, reducing travel and wait times for diagnosis.
- What could go wrong
- This is a validation study, not a treatment trial. The digital tests may not match the accuracy of in-person assessments, and results may not apply to all patients or languages.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
Outpatients treated at the Neuro-Head-Neck-Center (NHHC) at Umeå University hospital. When referred to neuropsychological examination at NHHC, patients will receive written information about the project and contact information to the principal investigator to whom they can turn for questions, before signing informed consent. Patient groups included are: * Traumatic brain injury (TBI), including patients with persisting symptoms after concussion, post-concussional disorder. * Stroke * Multiple sclerosis * Parkinson's Disease * Epilepsy * Brain Tumors A comparison group of healthy volunteers will be recruited using advertising.
