After more than a year of hard work, we are very excited to announce that eSLUMS is finally released on the iOS Store for download via iPhones and iPads! We are excited to invite you to try it out. We chose to make our LITE version FREE because, in the spirit of the original paper version, we wanted this app to get into the hands of as many people as possible and still provide high value. The eSLUMS app guides you through administering the assessment, but we created a quick start guide to make it even easier.
Don’t forget to rate us and leave us feedback on iTunes!

RESEARCH EVIDENCE BEHIND OUR APP
SLUMS recognizes patients with mild neurocognitive disorder, which the MMSE failed to recognize as defined by DSM IV criteria [1]. Comparing to MMSE, SLUMS may be more sensitive at detecting cognitive impairments when individuals are in the mild cognitive impairment range. Practitioners can now convert SLUMS and MMSE scores with our observation that there is an average difference of 4.56, with the SLUMS being the lower score [2].

Can you perform the test and have results on more than one person if you are not upgraded to the pro? If so, I am having a difficult time figuring out how I would start the second person for a slums test. I took the test just to practice and figure out the app and now I can’t figure out how to use it on another person as I don’t see and option to switch to another profile. Thank you.
