Abstract

Stroke is regarded as one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Cognitive impairment occurs in nearly 60% of stroke survivors. Despite the high prevalence and significant impact on post-stroke functioning, there remains a lack of clarity regarding effective interventions to support rehabilitation of cognitive impairment. This article critically appraises a systematic review which assessed the effectiveness of interventions to improve clinical outcomes associated with cognition for adults, post-onset of stroke.
