Abstract
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows: To determine the effects of each type of psychological intervention for cognitive impairment (i.e. cognitive rehabilitation; cognitive training; psychological or behavioural interventions, or both) on cognitive outcomes for people with cognitive impairment after stroke compared with those of other non‐pharmacological interventions, including usual care, non‐specific activities, or other types of psychological intervention. To compare the effects of the individual types of psychological intervention on post‐stroke cognitive impairment compared with each other, namely: cognitive rehabilitation compared with the two other types of psychological intervention; cognitive training compared with the two other types of psychological intervention; and psychological or behavioural interventions, or both, compared with the two other types of psychological intervention. To systematically explore the methods of cognitive assessment used in RCTs of post‐stroke cognitive impairment. Secondary objectives include determining if psychological interventions are effective in: improving mood, ADL, instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), and QoL; and reducing the incidence of subsequent cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction or recurrent stroke, or both) and mortality, where data are available.
