Intended Use
Cognivue testing is indicated as an adjunctive tool for evaluating perceptual and memory function in individuals aged 55-95 years old.
Device Description
Cognivue provides clinicians in a healthcare setting with objective measurements of cognitive function as a screening aid in the assessment of adults 55 years of age and older. This is done for the purpose of identifying a potential decline in cognitive function relative to baseline test performance of other age-normal adults, referring those adults for further testing where warranted, and monitoring changes in cognitive function over time. Cognivue presents a series of visual stimuli and a wedge-shaped cursor. The display presents stimuli at varying signal strengths with a moving domain-specific target. The patient identifies the target location by moving the cursor using the rotatory mouse manipulandum. The patient is scored based on the timing and accuracy of the responses. Repeated trials of varying difficulty characterize the subject's performance in each of the tested functional domains.

No
The description focuses on presenting visual stimuli and scoring based on timing and accuracy, with no mention of AI or ML in the device's operation or data analysis beyond standard statistical methods for determining cut-off values and agreement.

No
The device is described as an "adjunctive tool for evaluating perceptual and memory function" and a "screening aid in the assessment of adults" for identifying cognitive decline, referring for further testing, and monitoring changes. Its purpose is diagnostic/assessment, not therapeutic.

Yes

The device is indicated as an "adjunctive tool for evaluating perceptual and memory function" and provides "objective measurements of cognitive function as a screening aid in the assessment of adults...for the purpose of identifying a potential decline in cognitive function," which directly describes a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly mentions a "rotatory mouse manipulandum" used by the patient to interact with the visual stimuli. This indicates a hardware component is part of the device, making it not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze specimens from the human body. The description of Cognivue clearly states that it presents visual stimuli and the patient interacts with a cursor using a rotatory mouse. It measures cognitive function based on the timing and accuracy of responses to these visual stimuli. There is no mention of collecting or analyzing any biological specimens (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
  • The intended use and device description focus on behavioral and perceptual responses. The device is described as an "adjunctive tool for evaluating perceptual and memory function" and provides "objective measurements of cognitive function." This is done through interaction with visual stimuli, not through the analysis of biological samples.

Therefore, while Cognivue is a medical device used in a healthcare setting for diagnostic purposes (screening for cognitive decline), it does not meet the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

The sponsor conducted two separate studies. The first study was conducted to determine the cut-off values for Cognivue (e.g., impaired, intermediate, and unimpaired cognitive function) by comparing the performance of Cognivue against a reference standard, the St. Louis University Mental Status (SLUMS) Examination. The data obtained from 92 subjects were utilized to determine the cut-off data.

The second study was a clinical validation study which examined the agreement between the Cognivue classifications and the SLUMS classifications. The clinical validation study also examined the test - retest reliability study of Cognivue, and the determination of the construct validity of Cognivue via comparison with traditional paper and pencil neuropsychological tests. 401 subjects were enrolled at 13 older adult independent living communities. These sites consist of senior independent living facilities and an adult program for independent living seniors who are living at home. These sites enroll clients 55-95 years of age and who are cared for by primary care practitioners. Subjects were stratified in to three roughly equal groups, based on SLUMS scores: Normal, Mildly impaired, Impaired.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Cognivue provides clinicians in a healthcare setting with objective measurements of cognitive function as a screening aid in the assessment of adults 55 years of age and older. This is done for the purpose of identifying a potential decline in cognitive function relative to baseline test performance of other age-normal adults, referring those adults for further testing where warranted, and monitoring changes in cognitive function over time.

Cognivue presents a series of visual stimuli and a wedge-shaped cursor. The display presents stimuli at varying signal strengths with a moving domain-specific target. The patient identifies the target location by moving the cursor using the rotatory mouse manipulandum. The patient is scored based on the timing and accuracy of the responses. Repeated trials of varying difficulty characterize the subject's performance in each of the tested functional domains.

Figure 1. Cognivue Components

CAS's Cognivue technology enables the automated characterization of aspects of the perceptual and memory functions linked to human cortical information processing. Cognivue uses software running on a personal computer. The results are used to detect brain functional impairments in older adults (ages 55-95). This is accomplished by recording the subject's ability to respond to ten variations of visual stimuli. In all ten tests, the patient tracks the movement of a cursor-width target wedge (pie slice depicted in Figure 2) in a circular display by using a hand controller (rotatory manipulandum) to place the green cursor over the target wedge.

The CAS Cognivue test is rapid (~10 mins), extensive (including many brain functional domains), and non-invasive (patient contact only is made by the manipulandum).

Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows a gray ring on a black background. A section of the ring is filled with a pattern of black and white circles of varying sizes. The filled section is outlined in green, highlighting it as a distinct area within the ring.

Cognivue presents ten brain function tests in ten minutes. The battery is organized into three sub-batteries, with each sub-test preceded by transitional guidance that facilitates the test subject's engagement with minimal supervision:

Transitional guidance and textual instructions are presented at the start of each subtest, as described below:

  • Sub-Battery A: Two tests that measure adaptive motor control and dynamic visual contrast sensitivity, the results being used to adjust the remaining sub-tests to the basic response characteristics of the subject.
    • o Adaptive Motor Control: Patient must follow a series of dots as they move around the circle and change direction and speed.
    • Visual Saliency Testing: Dots from previous test begin to fade (decreasing o contrast) as the subject tracks them around the circle, while changing speed and direction.
  • Sub-Battery B: Four perceptual tests measuring letter, word, shape, and motion ● processing ability:
    • o Letter discrimination. Subject must correctly identify a real English letter.
    • Word discrimination. Subject must correctly identity a real English word. O
    • Shape discrimination. Subject must correctly identify which shape is O different.
    • Motion discrimination. Subject must identify which dot pattern is о different.
  • Sub-Battery C: Four memory tests measuring: ●
    • Letter memory. Subject must remember what letter was shown as a pre- O cue, and identify that letter when presented in a circle populated with other letters.
    • Word memory. Subject must remember what word was shown as a pre- O cue, and identify that word when presented in a circle populated with other words.
    • Shape memory. Subject must remember what shape was shown as a pre- O cue, and identify that shape when presented in a circle populated with other shapes.

  • Motion memory. Subject must remember what direction of motion was o shown as a pre-cue, and identify that direction when presented in a circle populated with other directions.
    Cognivue was validated against the St. Louis Mental Status (SLUMS) examination. The SLUMS is a cognitive screening tool which detects early cognitive problems, specifically mild cognitive impairment that is often missed by other mental status screening tools. The SLUMS is a psychometric scale with validated cut-off scores based upon the subject's education level. SLUMS scores are classified as: If subject is a high school graduate: >26 is unimpaired, 24 is unimpaired, 75 is consistent with being unimpaired.

8. Clinical Performance Results.

  • a. Cognivue Cut-Offs Analysis. Scores on Cognivue and the SLUMS were compared in a sample of assisted and independent living adults. ages 55-95 years old, to find Cognivue scores that yield correspondence with SLUMS patient classification as: impaired, unimpaired, and intermediate. The data obtained from 92 subjects were utilized to determine the cut-off data. SLUMS scores ranged from 0 - 30 and classified as: >26 unimpaired, =27), the sponsor obtained the cut-off values for Cognivue scores that minimize the objective function. In the second method, the sponsor repeated the same procedure but optimized another objective function, where 1-ACC is inaccuracy, (1- [TP + TN / total) and BGI is error bias ( contrast ratio [ difference/sum] of FPs & FNs.

The results from these analyses indicated that Cognivue scores ≤50 are consistent with a conservative standard for impairment and that Cognivue scores ≥75 are consistent with a conservative standard for un-impairment. Scores between 50 and 75 represent an intermediate result that has no significance.

Image /page/9/Figure/4 description: The image contains a confusion matrix and a scatter plot. The confusion matrix shows the relationship between SLUMS and -CAS, with categories Imp, Mild, and Unimp. The scatter plot shows the relationship between Slums and -CAS, with N=92. The plot includes a regression line and horizontal lines at approximately -50 and -75, with an R-squared value of -0.364.

The scatter plot representing the scores for the 92 subjects in the Cut-Offs Study:

The table to the left of the scatter plot is a key for relating the plot to subject classification. The table enclosed in the scatter plot shows the results of analyses of classification:

Top Line: Impairment cut-off values of SLUMS ≥ 21; Cognivue ≥ 50 yield the following:

10

Negative Percent Agreement (NPA, 100 x [TP/TP+FP]) = 50 Positive Percent Agreement (PPA, 100 x [TP/TP+FP]) = 86 Accuracy (ACC, [True Positives + True Negatives]/total sample) = .86 Error Symmetry ([False Positives - False Negatives]/total) = . 01.

Bottom Line: Unimpaired cut-off values of SLUMS ≥ 27 and Cognivue ≥ 75 yield the following: Negative Percent Agreement (NPA. 100 x [TP/TP+FP]) = 67

Positive Percent Agreement (PPA, 100 x [TP/TP+FP]) = 66 Accuracy (ACC, [True Positives + True Negatives]/total sample) = .66

Error Symmetry ([False Positives - False Negatives]/total) = . 05.

Summary: Cognivue cut-off scores between 55 and 64 provide an acceptable adjunctive tool for recognizing patients who would score 0-20 on SLUMS, a range of SLUMS scores that suggests the presence of impairment. Cognivue cut-off scores between 74 and 79 provide an acceptable adjunctive tool for recognizing patients who would score 27-30 on SLUMS, a range of SLUMS scores that suggests the absence of impairment. Cognivue scores between the impairment and unimpairment ranges described above would provide an acceptable adjunctive tool for recognizing patients who should score 21-26 on SLUMS, a range of SLUMS scores that suggests an intermediate condition between the presence and absence of impairment.

Cognivue scores ≤ 50 are consistent with a conservative standard for impairment. That is, an impairment standard that avoids errors in which Cognivue might imprudently support the impression that a patient is impaired. Cognivue scores > 75 are consistent with a conservative standard for unimpairment. That is, an unimpairment standard that avoids errors in which Cognivue might imprudently support the impression that a patient is not unimpaired.

  • b. Agreement analyses (SLUMS and Cognivue). This analysis was an agreement analysis between the subiect device. Cognivue score (range from 0-100). and the non-reference standard, the St. Louis University Mental Status Examination (SLUMS, range from 0-30). The sponsor also did the agreement analysis on the classification results of Cognivue and SLUMS, impaired, unimpaired, and intermediate. The data obtained from the first test session of 401 subjects was utilized to determine the agreement between SLUMS and Cognivue. Subjects were classified as follows:
    • SLUMS: SLUMS scores are classified as: If subject is a high school . graduate: >26 is unimpaired, 24 is unimpaired, 74 is unimpaired, PPA = 100% X 60 / (60 + 13) = 82% (95% Wilson interval: .72 to .89) NPA = 100% X 110 / (2 + 110) = 98% (95% Wilson interval: .93 to .99)

This suggests a categorical relationship between Cognivue and SLUMS outcomes for patients who are either impaired or unimpaired.

Summary: These findings confirm agreement between SLUMS and Cognivue. Cognivue can inform an impression that a patient is unimpaired or is impaired. Cognivue sets a conservative standard for supporting the impression that a mildly impaired patient should be presumed to be impaired.

  • c. Analysis of the Test-Retest Reliability of Cognivue Classification and SLUMS Scores. The purpose of these analyses was to compare scores from the repeated administration of Cognivue, and from the repeated administration of SLUMS, to assess the re-test reliability of Cognivue, and to compare the re-test reliability of Cognivue to the re-test reliability of SLUMS. Subjects underwent Cognivue and SLUMS testing in two sessions 1-2 weeks apart without feedback, minimizing the impact of learning effects.
    Cognivue and SLUMS subject classifications from the first and second tests are in 3 X 3 tables. Scatterplots are presented to represent data related to regression analyses. PPAs, NPAs assess test-retest reliability along with weighted kappa scores at a 95% CI. Changes in SLUMs (>3) and GDS scores (>2) will filter-out subjects who may show non-measurement re-test changes. Intraclass correlation coefficients describe relations between Cognivue and SLUMS scores, and their respective retest reliability using one-way random effects analyses of variance with subjects as the

15

random effect. Bland-Altman plots of the Day 2 - Day 1 difference (Y) vs. the mean over the 2 days (X) describe these findings.

The data obtained for the test-retest reliability analyses included 358 subjects reduced from 401 who were unavailable for repeat testing or among the last tested who could only be tested once due to deadline time constraint. The group of 43 subjects who were only tested once are those who did not sign-up for a second session within the period of testing at their site.

  • i. Cognivue test-retest regression analysis. The following is the scatterplot of of Cognivue first test scores (abscissa, full-scale 0-100) and Cognivue second test scores (ordinate, full-scale 0-100) co-plotted with 45 degree line:
    Image /page/15/Figure/3 description: The image is a scatter plot that shows the relationship between Cognivue scores from Test 1 and Test 2. The x-axis represents the Cognivue score from Test 1, and the y-axis represents the Cognivue score from Test 2. The data points are scattered around a diagonal line, indicating a positive correlation between the two tests. Most of the data points are clustered in the upper right corner of the plot, suggesting that most participants scored relatively high on both tests.

Deming regression (unweighted) calculated in Analyse-it yields the line:

Cognivue 2 = 9.06 + 0.936 Cognivue 1 Intercept 95% CI = 4.27 to 13.84, SE = 2.433, p=.0002 Slope 95% CI = 0.880 to 0.993, SE = 0.0285, p=.0264) r = 0.90.

These findings demonstrate substantial and significant agreement between Cognivue first test and Cognivue second test scores.
