Cognitive screening tests improve detection of dementia in the outpatient setting, and are helpful in select inpatient settings. Barriers to widespread screening include provider time investment and variability in test administration and scoring. We therefore developed Self-Administered Tasks Uncovering Risk of Neurodegeneration (SATURN) for inexpensive ($100) computer tablets. This submission to Dryad accompanies an abstract for the 2020 American Academy of Neurology conference, and is likely to referenced in a later manuscript. This Dryad data submission was updated on 31-MAY-2020. The updated version of SATURN ("SATURN_0-4-0_ENGLISH.py") revises the score summary screen with the latest normative data, and now permits the operator to set their state (for orientation questions). The updated Dryad submission also includes a better video of normal operation of SATURN, draft foreign language versions, and an Excel spreadsheet with de-identified participant-level data on demographics, MoCA scores, and SATURN scores. As before, we include instructions for installing SATURN on a computer tablet, and the IRB-approved protocol for the validation study. The latter includes a description of scoring each item within SATURN. Our hope is that by sharing the protocol, it will be easier for others to implement studies that use SATURN. An older file, SATURN.rar, is retained for completeness, but is outdated as of the 31-MAY-2020 upload.
