Association of combined physical and cognitive rehabilitation with post-stroke dementia: a U.S. multicenter retrospective cohort study

Stroke is the leading cause of disability among adults in the U.S.1 Notably, stroke survivors are twice as likely to develop dementia as the general population.2 Post-stroke dementia includes all forms of dementias that develop after stroke, regardless of etiology.2 Because acute post-stroke cognitive deficits may be transient, the diagnosis of post-stroke dementia is typically deferred until at least six months after stroke onset.3 Patients with post-stroke dementia have an increased risk of dependent living and mortality than stroke survivors who do not develop dementia, imposing a substantial burden on patients, caregivers, and healthcare systems.
