Linus Administrator vs Problem Solve It Usage & Stats
The Linus Health platform – a suite of digital cognitive assessment, clinical decision support, and intervention solutions – helps providers catch cognitive impairment early and efficiently; turn insights into action; and boost the bottom line. Augmenting human expertise with cutting-edge AI, the platform brings visibility to early, subtle signs of cognitive issues that traditional paper-based tests may miss and empowers providers with actionable recommendations.
The Linus Health Administrator app allows existing customers to register patients, administer cognitive assessments, and route results to providers quickly and easily. Using an iPad and Apple pencil, patients complete assessments with minimal oversight. With automatic scoring and interpretation, results are immediately available to providers.
Key features and functionality support a smooth clinical workflow:
• Enroll a patient (name & demographics)
• Select assessments
• Assign to a provider for interpretation of results
• Administer assessments
• Immediate sync with the Linus web portal for clinicians to view results
Core Cognitive Evaluation™
Combines quantitative insights from our next-generation digital assessment with qualitative insights from a life and health questionnaire, helping providers understand both a patient’s current cognitive status and future dementia risk.
DCTclock™
Uses advanced machine-learning algorithms to provide nuanced measures of motor, cognitive, and time-based performance that are not visible to the naked eye or captured by the traditional clock drawing tests.
DCR™ - Digital Clock and Recall
Uses advanced machine-learning algorithms to detect subtle signs of cognitive impairment by analyzing the patient's drawing behavior and speech during the digital clock drawing tasks and 3-word verbal recall.

Research suggests that performance on cognitive tasks resembling daily challenges (i.e. everyday problem-solving tasks) is a better indicator of functional cognitive abilities in individuals with cognitive deficits (e.g. Gold, 2012; Kimbler, 2013).
The Problem Solve It app is designed to help individuals with cognitive impairments resulting, for example, from a stroke or early stages of dementia. The problems selected in this app are functional in nature and relate to social communication, management of finances, health, literacy, education, and personal thinking.
Problem solving is an important skill in our day-to-day activities, and while performing various tasks in this app such as problem-solving based on case scenarios and sentence completion with “if,” the user will be able to identify the problem, examine the possible options, and think creatively to seek strategic approaches to problem solving.
The app has six different types of tasks geared toward problem solving. The tasks pertain to everyday math problems, analysis of short scenarios, case-based solutions, sentence completion, missing links in a sequence of activities, and predictions of problems in given scenarios. Problem Solve it is engaging, with real photographs, multiple-choice options and open ended questions.
Problem Solve it is easy to navigate and allows users to employ several tools to perform the following:
- enter multiple users
- change settings
- save selected targets for the next session
- select auto-scoring
- select alternate counts for multiple users
- enable or disable special effect sounds
- audio record users’ responses
- track correct and incorrect responses
- view reports in table and graphical forms
- e-mail results at the end of the game
