Pediatric stroke is associated with a range of maladaptive cognitive and behavioral outcomes that often require targeted intervention. Despite increasing research on neuropsychological outcomes over the past decade, evidence for effective therapies and interventions for the most commonly reported cognitive and behavioral challenges is still limited. The most widely prescribed interventions address more overt deficits in sensorimotor and speech/language functions, yet interventions for higher-order cognitive, linguistic and behavioral deficits are notably less defined. Moreover, concepts of rehabilitation in adult stroke cannot be easily translated directly to pediatric populations because the effect of stroke and recovery in the developing brain takes a very different course than in the mature brain. In pediatric stroke, neuropsychological deficits often emerge gradually over time necessitating a long-term approach to intervention. Furthermore, family and school context often play a much larger role. The goal of this review is to describe cognitive and behavioral interventions for perinatal and childhood stroke, as motor rehabilitation is covered elsewhere in this issue. We also discuss cognitive aspects of current rehabilitative therapies and technology. Acknowledging the current limited state of stroke-specific rehabilitation research in children, findings from pediatric acquired brain injury intervention and use of transdiagnostic approaches lend important insights. Because there is limited support for single domain (cognitive) trainings and translation of research rehabilitation programs to clinical practice can be challenging, the value of holistic multidisciplinary approaches to improve everyday function in children and adolescents following stroke is emphasized.
