FDA-cleared neurocognitive assessment

Objective pre/post cognitive outcomes for pain management.

Add a quantified cognitive measure to your outcomes package — alongside pain and functional measures. Built for interventional pain, neuromodulation and spinal cord stimulator (SCS) programs, and spine & rehab clinics.

Why objective cognition in pain care

Pain scores are subjective. Add a measure that isn't.

Pain intensity and function are reported; cognitive performance is measured. DANA quantifies reaction time (speed) and percent correct (accuracy) so your pre- and post-intervention story includes an objective signal — one you can document for patients, referrers, and outcome reviews.

  • Baseline before an SCS trial, implant, or interventional procedure; reassess after and at follow-ups.
  • Support discussions of medication effects, sleep, fatigue, mood, and function with quantified results.
  • Pair objective cognition with PEG-3 pain scores and standardized mood and sleep scales in one tool.
  • Document within-person change against each patient's individual baseline — exportable as PDF or CSV.

Where DANA fits

Conditions, factors & treatment courses DANA helps you track.

DANA measures objective reaction time and accuracy across the conditions, factors, and interventions pain-management programs see every day. See the FDA-cleared indications for use →

Conditions & factors

Chronic pain syndrome Prescription & non-prescription medication effects Depression Insomnia Fatigue & stress Memory impairment

Treatment courses

Medication management Spinal cord stimulator (SCS) effects Interventional pain procedures

DANA measures reaction time and accuracy to aid a qualified professional's assessment — it does not diagnose these conditions. Not every item above is a named FDA-cleared indication; see the link above for the exact cleared language. DANA is not a diagnostic tool.

Built for your program

What pain-management teams get.

5-minute assessment

Slots into pre-op and follow-up visits without disrupting procedural throughput.

Pre/post tracking

Longitudinal graphs against each patient's baseline — trial, implant, and follow-up on one curve.

Scored questionnaires

PEG-3, PHQ-9/8, GAD-7, ISI, PSQI and more — standardized, auto-scored, in the same session.

Web portal

Aggregated results across patients — graphs, PDF summaries, and raw CSV export for outcomes reporting.

Role-aware workflow

Coordinators and staff administer; physicians interpret — administration kept apart from interpretation.

Compliant & cleared

FDA-cleared; HIPAA, 21 CFR Part 11 & SOC 2 Type II compliant; BAA available; encrypted end to end.

Reimbursable

Reimbursed by commercial and federal payers when medically necessary — a revenue line for your program, not just documentation overhead.

Program implementation & management

Our operations team works with you from day one through ongoing use to help ensure program success — we don't just hand you software and expect you to figure out workflows on your own.

The pain-management workflow

Baseline. Reassess. Document.

A standardized baseline-and-reassess loop that fits medication management — the way most pain-management patients are treated — as well as procedural and neuromodulation programs.

01

Baseline

Establish a cognitive baseline before starting or changing a medication regimen, a procedure, or a new treatment plan — about 5 minutes in the clinic workflow.

02

Reassess

Repeat at follow-up visits — after a medication change, an intervention, or on a routine cadence — in-clinic or remotely, self- or staff-administered.

03

Document

Show objective change against baseline next to pain and functional measures. Export PDF summaries and raw CSV for the record.

Implementation model

Example: medication management pathway.

How most pain-management patients are actually treated — and tracked.

01

Establish baseline

Administer DANA before starting or changing a pain medication regimen — opioids, gabapentinoids, muscle relaxants, and others.

02

Monitor during titration

Reassess as doses are adjusted to catch cognitive side effects like sedation or slowed reaction time early.

03

Track through ongoing care

Repeat at routine follow-up visits to build a longitudinal record alongside pain and function scores like PEG-3.

04

Flag meaningful change

Identify cognitive decline or improvement that correlates with a medication change, not just a subjective report.

05

Support medication decisions

Give prescribers objective data alongside PEG-3 and clinical judgment to inform dose adjustments or a medication switch.

06

Document for the record

Export trend data and summaries to support medical necessity and ongoing treatment decisions.

Documentation & value

Objective evidence for the record.

DANA supports objective documentation that can accompany medical-necessity discussions — baseline, intervention, and follow-up comparisons in one exportable report. When medically necessary, DANA is reimbursed by commercial and federal payers.
