Abstract

Background and aims: Early cognitive functioning proved to be a strong and valid predictor for long term outcome after stroke. Moreover, subacute impairment in the visuoperceptual and constructional domain forms the strongest predictor for instrumental ADL (Nys et al., 2005). This is remarkable since visuoperception and construction appeared to be the domain in which most recovery occurred. This means that, although the impairments tend to recover, the prognostic value continues. In clinical practice occipital stroke is thought of as favorable.
