Who Can PhrenD™ Help?
PhrenD™...Our Brand Story.
Dr. Lauren Flaherty, Neuropsychology Fellow and Researcher / PhrenD™ Mobile App Creator, is a second generation Greek immigrant. The Greek word for “brain” is “phren”. Being that the purpose of the “PhrenD” mobile app is to hopefully stop or alleviate the advance of cognitive impairment… to be a “friend” to the user…the PhrenD™ brand was born.
Additionally, capitalizing the “D” puts an emphasis on the medical or “doctor” relationship of the overall brand.
What Types of Cognitive Impairment Disorders Can PhrenD™ Help Track or Alleviate?
Cognitive Impairment disorders mainly include dementia, amnesia, and delirium. In these disorders, patients are no longer fully oriented to time and space. Depending on the cause, the diagnosis of a cognitive disorder may be temporary or progressive leading to more severe conditions such as alzheimer’s.
The PhrenD™ mobile app can be an effective tool to aid in tracking and assessing a CI condition and in some cases,arresting or reversing the disorder.
