Abstract

|
Cognitive impairment occurs frequently after suffering from stroke and it makes both rehabilitation treatment and returning to work very difficult. and has negative effects on quality of life. Neuropsychological assessment could provide useful information that can be used to assess the extent of PSCI in order to lead to the accurate diagnosis and proper therapeutic intervention for the patients. Since most existing neuropsychological assessment tools were specifically designed to assess Alzheimer’s disease. the tool considering clinical characteristics of PSCI does not exist yet; thus, there are many difficulties in conducting accurate assessment and intervention to treat cognitive impairment.. Therefore, in this review, the characteristics of the evaluation tools were compared with an overall overview of the neuropsychological evaluation tools for measuring cognitive impairment. Also, the limitations of those existing neuropsychological assessment tools and requirements of assessment tools in order to assess PSC correctly were reviewed. Finally, it was intended to provide insight into development of relevant future tools by introducing recently developed overseas screening test for PSCI in this review.
