认知障碍是一种异常复杂的现象，不存在简单的解决方案。对于认知障碍的构成没有统一的定义，术语也多种多样。任何一种医疗状况都不存在统一的损害模式，并且个体差异很大：同一种疾病可以以不同的方式影响人们，并且相同的状况可以在不同的个体中引起不同的损害模式。一些导致认知障碍的疾病是慢性的，另一些则是渐进性的，这增加了评估其影响的难度。此外，某些医疗状况的共病会导致意想不到的损害模式。在某些情况下，例如脑损伤，损伤的影响完全取决于脑损伤的位置和程度。 （Groome 等，2006）此外，由于人口老龄化和创伤患者生存率的提高，患有认知障碍的人数正在增加（Ghajar，2000；WHO，2008）。神经精神疾病和创伤性脑损伤是导致残疾的主要原因（WHO，2008）。
Cognitive impairment is an exceptionally complicated phenomenon, for which no simple solutions exist. There is no unified definition of what constitutes cognitive impairment and the terminology is varied. There is no uniform pattern of impairment occurring with any one medical condition and individual differences are significant: the same disease can affect people in different ways and the same condition can cause diverse patterns of impairment in different individuals. Some medical conditions causing cognitive impairment are chronic, others progressive, which adds to the difficulty of assessing their impact. In addition, the co-morbidity of certain medical conditions causes unexpected patterns of impairment. With certain conditions, such as brain injury, the impact of the impairment depends entirely on the location and extent of brain damage. (Groome et al., 2006) Furthermore, the number of people living with cognitive disability is growing due to population ageing and the improved survival rates for trauma patients (Ghajar, 2000; WHO, 2008). Neuropsychiatric illnesses and traumatic brain injury are among the leading causes of disability (WHO, 2008).
