Post-stroke Cognitive Impairment and Dementia: Frequency and Anatomical Correlates With the French Version of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)-Canadian Stroke Network Battery
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating French adaptation of NINDS-Canadian Stroke Network battery for Stroke and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 1,635 participants across 7 sites.
Detailed Summary
Projections from epidemiological studies suggest that, among the Western adult population, one in three will present a cerebrovascular accident (stroke), severe cognitive disorders, or both. To better diagnose the Vascular Cognitive Impairment, new standards were developed by a North America working group which are under validation. It is essential to adapt these standard for French-speaking population, and especially to define cutoff scores of the cognitive battery to determine cognitive deficit. The investigators propose a study coordinated by the University-Hospital of Amiens for french speaking centers. This study will investigate this battery with 906 controls to define the standards and 302 stroke affected patients to define the frequency and cognitive mechanisms. This step is essential for people to benefit from these new standards.
