Zusammenfassung

Die Brief Repeatable Battery of Neuropsychological Tests (BRB-N) ist eine bei Multipler Sklerose (MS) häufig angewandte neuropsychologische Screening-Batterie, die bislang aufgrund fehlender Normwerte kaum in der Routineversorgung, sondern fast ausschließlich in Studien verwendet wird. Anhand einer schrittweisen linearen Regressionsanalyse wurde bei 241 gesunden Probanden die Abhängigkeit der Testergebnisse der BRB-N von Alter, Geschlecht und Bildung evaluiert, die Normgrenzen festgelegt, wobei z-Werte von −1,68 und weniger als pathologisch betrachtet wurden. Jeweils eine Gruppe von Patienten mit schubförmig remittierender MS (RRMS, n=43) und sekundär progredienter MS (SPMS, n=60) wurden anhand dieser Normgrenzen hinsichtlich des Anteils kognitiv beeinträchtigter Patienten untersucht. Das Regressionsmodell erklärte 2,7–25,0% der Gesamtvarianz der Testergebnisse. Insgesamt zeigten sich 38% der RRMS- und 47% der SPMS-Patienten kognitiv beeinträchtigt, wobei im Testprofil in beiden Gruppen Konzentrations- und Aufmerksamkeitsstörungen, in der SPMS-Gruppe zusätzlich Gedächtnisstörungen dominierten. Die Häufigkeit kognitiver Beeinträchtigung war vereinbar mit Angaben in der Literatur.
