1.0 About Cognivue Thrive
Cognivue Thrive is a computerized cognitive assessment aid that objectively, quantitatively and reliably
evaluates cognitive function. Upon completion of a series of 6 subtests, Cognivue Thrive creates a one-
page easy to interpret report with scores of Memory, Visuospatial and Executive Function cognitive
domains and two key speed parameters. Indicative ranges for each cognitive domain and parameter are
used to provide classifications of good, moderate or poor cognitive ability in each area. These cognitive
scores and classifications can be used as a baseline for future comparison, and also provide a clinician
and the test-taker with a tool for discussing ways to improve cognitive health.
Cognivue Thrive is indicated for use as an adjunctive tool for evaluating cognitive function. It is not a
stand-alone diagnostic tool. The device results are to be assessed and interpreted by a licensed
clinician.
Warnings
1) Cognivue Thrive does not identify the presence or absence of clinical diagnoses.
2) Cognivue Thrive cannot be used as a stand-alone diagnostic.
3) Cognivue Thrive is intended to be used in clinical professional offices or similar settings.
Cognivue Thrive is based on the same technology as Cognivue® Advanced. Thrive uses a subset of the
Cognivue Advanced algorithms to provide similar breakdown of cognitive scores in a shorter duration
test.
Cognivue Thrive algorithms have been compared vs Cognivue Advanced in a clinical trial with 100
subjects. The correlation between Advanced and Thrive was in the same category of Advanced vs
Advanced, which was statistically significant (moderate positive 0.57) and Thrive’s test reliability was
high positive (0.74).

properties of a computerized cognitive assessment test (Cognivue®)”, World Journal of

2.0 Device Description
The Cognivue Thrive is a portable, battery powered, laptop-like device that includes a wireless keyboard
with touchpad, a rotary CogniWheel® and a CogniCover. The CogniWheel® is the sole patient input
device. The CogniCover is designed for privacy and to reduce distraction and light reflections on the
computer screen. The CogniCover and CogniWheel® are designed to fold for portability.
Cognivue Thrive is designed to be battery powered during normal use, but can also be used when the
provided charging adapter is plugged in. When the battery status indicator is orange (shown above) it is
charging, when both lights are green, the battery is fully charged. It may take up to 4 hours to fully
charge the battery from a fully discharged state.

3.0 Recommendations for Use
In order to provide the best experience for patients and to produce repeatable test results, Cognivue
recommends the following when using Cognivue Thrive.
General Testing Location
When possible, choose a test location that reduces distractions (for example, an exam room, office or
conference room rather than a busy hallway).
Positioning of Cognivue Thrive and the Patient
Put the device on a flat, stable surface that is ergonomically comfortable for the patient (see below).
The patient should be able to comfortably reach and manipulate the CogniWheel and view the
computer screen. Avoid placing the Cognivue Thrive in a location where there may be distractions
behind the device which are visible to the patient.
Do not place the device on the patient’s lap for the test. This does not provide a stable surface during
the administration of the test and may lead to the patient not being able to consistently use the
Cogniwheel.

4.0 Getting Started/Configuring Cognivue Thrive
The first time Cognivue Thrive is turned on, a configuration wizard will be displayed. This wizard will
guide you through a sequence of steps to get the system ready.
Step 1: Setting up connectivity
This step will allow you to connect the Cognivue Thrive device to a network. Connecting to a network
will allow your facility to run tests and access reports from other computers within the same network.
In addition, Cognivue remotely provides regular software updates that enable new features, fixes issues,
and ensures that the system configuration remains secure. These automatic software updates require
your Cognivue Thrive to be periodically connected to our cloud server through your network.
To access a network connection, click on the Up/Down icon in the status bar at the upper right of the
screen and select the wifi network. In this example, the network is “Cognivue”, but you will connect to
your network with a different name. You will be prompted to enter in the wifi password for the selected
network, and then click connect.
