Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a structured tool commonly used to assess cognitive impairment, such as dementia, in elderly patients. The other options listed (International Personality Disorder Examination, Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale) are not designed for this purpose and would not be appropriate tools for assessing dementia.
