Vascular Cognitive Disorders

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Cognitive decline is an all-too frequent downstream consequence of stroke. Dementia associated with vascular disease has variable presentations and limited treatment options. Identifying these patients early, however, may enable the patient and family to adapt and develop techniques to work around the deficits. Here, we highlight the variable presentations of dementia associated with vascular disease, proper evaluation methods, and treatment options.
