脑卒中诊断后的认知障碍和记忆障碍是常见的症状,显著影响幸存者的生活质量。中风患者在中风发作的第一年内发展为痴呆的可能性很高。目前,正在努力评估中风对大脑的影响,特别是在早期阶段。许多神经心理学评估被用于评估和区分脑卒中后的认知障碍和痴呆。本文重点介绍了现有的神经心理学评估在检测中风后痴呆和记忆丧失中的作用。本综述从卒中类型和与痴呆发展相关的危险因素开始,然后简要描述卒中诊断标准和卒中对大脑的影响,导致认知障碍并以记忆丧失结束。本综述旨在联合收割机现有的神经心理学评估,发展中风后记忆评估(PSMA)计划的基础上最公认的和可用的研究。预计拟议的PSMA将根据中风位置评估与大脑不同部位相关的不同类型的记忆功能。一个最佳的治疗方案,将帮助中风患者享受额外的年更高的生活质量。
Cognitive impairment and memory dysfunction following stroke diagnosis are common symptoms that significantly affect the survivors’ quality of life. Stroke patients have a high potential to develop dementia within the first year of stroke onset. Currently, efforts are being exerted to assess stroke effects on the brain, particularly in the early stages. Numerous neuropsychological assessments are being used to evaluate and differentiate cognitive impairment and dementia following stroke. This article focuses on the role of available neuropsychological assessments in detection of dementia and memory loss after stroke. This review starts with stroke types and risk factors associated with dementia development, followed by a brief description of stroke diagnosis criteria and the effects of stroke on the brain that lead to cognitive impairment and end with memory loss. This review aims to combine available neuropsychological assessments to develop a post-stroke memory assessment (PSMA) scheme based on the most recognized and available studies. The proposed PSMA is expected to assess different types of memory functionalities that are related to different parts of the brain according to stroke location. An optimal therapeutic program that would help stroke patients enjoy additional years with higher quality of life is presented.
