Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome measure of this study is recovery of cognitive function in the first year after stroke, measured with a 60 minute neuropsychological assessment battery For the primary analyses cognitive recovery is operationalized as a transition from a mild vascular cognitive disorder in the acute stage to no disorder after one year or a transition from a major vascular disorder in the acute stage to a mild or no vascular cognitive disorder after one year. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary cognitive outcome measure is deterioration of cognitive function, operationalized as transition from mild to major vascular cognitive disorder, or a transition from no disorder in the acute stage to a mild or major vascular cognitive disorder after one year. Additional outcome measures that will be collected include also important outcome parameters as Cognitive complaints (CLCE-24), self-efficacy (Self Efficacy for symptom management scale (SEsx)), Quality of Life measured by the Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL), emotional functioning (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), neuropsychiatric inventory-questionnaire (NPI-Q)) and participation measured by Utrecht Scale for Evaluation of Rehabilitation-Participation (User-P) and Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement System (PROMIS-10) will be assessed at one year post stroke. | — |
