The relevance of language disorders for social and vocational rehabilitation in stroke patients

Description / Topics

The purpose of the study was to investigate to what extent language disorders after the occurrence of a stroke affect the social and vocational rehabilitation of such patients, and whether there are neurolinguistic prognostic factors indicative of social and vocational reintegration.

180 stroke patients with aphasia (target group) and 60 stroke patients without aphasia (control group) will be compared by neuropsychological measures and rating scales to describe motor, cognitive, psychosocial and emotional status at time of admission and 12 and 24 month after discharge from, neurological rehabilitation.

The results of this study may will have consequences on planning of the individual`s rehabilitation process and aftercare.
