Abstract:Introduction:A number of studies have shown the impact of cognitive abilities on instrumental activities of daily living, in particular executive functions. Nevertheless, it is not clear to what extent these results can be generalized, given that most samples studied have not included people with a low educational level.Objectives:The current study aims to investigate the association between cognitive abilities and activities of daily living in older adults — with and without dementia — from a middle-income co… Show more
“…5 These activities need a good executive cognitive function in order to be carried out. 13 Executive function is essential in planning and implementing basic daily activities, which, unfortunately, cannot be assessed using MMSE. 5,13 There are many suitable instruments for assessing the executive function such as Modified Wisconsin Card Sorting Test, The Trail Making Test A and B, the Stroop Interference Test, and Verbal Fluency Test; however, the translated and validated indonesian version of those instruments are not available yet.…”

“…This results are coherent with a previous study claiming that using technology, in this case, using telephone and handling finance, correlates with memory function which, in this study, is reflected by the orientation to time and verbal recall. 13 Orientation to time is also essential for a person to make a schedule, and in the case of drug consumption, to make a person responsible for his own medication.…”

“…Even though shopping, housekeeping, laundry, and mode of transportation are included as IADL activities due to their roles in a person's adaptation to his/her environment and social life, they are more likely to be influenced by motor function and executive function. 13 It is clearly shown that these activities are not parts of complex activities which require memory function.…”
Background: Cognitive impairment is one of the most common post-stroke complications; however, neither patients nor health professionals are often aware of this complication. The impact of cognitive impairment on quality of life is reflected through basic activity daily living (bADL) and instrumental activity daily living (IADL). Prior studies concerning the correlation between cognitive impairment and activity daily living has shown contradictive results. This study was conducted in order to analyze the correlation between the cognitive functions and activity daily living in post stroke patients at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out to 23 post-stroke patients from September-November 2015. Samples were collected through consecutive sampling at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital. Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used to assess the cognitive functions and Lawton and Brody Scale to assess both bADL and IADL. Spearman correlation was selected to analyze the existing correlation between each cognitive domain and activity daily living. Results: Spearman statistical correlation showed an insignificant correlation between the cognitive functions and bADL (r2=0.181, p=0.408) and a significant correlation with IADL was obtained (r2=0.517, p=0.03). The only cognitive domain positively correlated with IADL was orientation to time and verbal recall. Conclusions: There is a correlation between cognitive functions and IADL among post-stroke patients at Dr.

Many physicians rely on sum score cognitive screening tests to evaluate patients for cognitive decline. Because the vast majority of cognitively impaired patients never receive more extensive testing, the results of these screening tests impact patients and their family members profoundly. No previous study has examined whether the metrics used by the popular Mini‐Mental State Examination, Montreal Cognitive Assessment, and Saint Louis University Mental Status tests reliably identify single‐domain deficits or allow clinicians to adequately track disease progression. We compare side by side the metrics used by these three tests to highlight the differences in the ways they measure domain impairments. We then contrast the sum score approach to cognitive screening with brief domain‐specific tests that use extended metrics in each domain examined. Last, we suggest that moderate‐to‐severe domain‐specific deficits on these tests should lead physicians to anticipate specific functional problems and alert family members.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
