Abstract
Stroke leading to cognitive impairment and memory problems are frequent symptoms that have a substantial impact on the quality of life for survivors. Within a year of the stroke's start, dementia is quite likely to occur in stroke patients. The consequences of stroke on the brain are now being studied, especially in the early stages. It is possible to examine and distinguish between cognitive impairment and dementia after a stroke using a variety of neuropsychological tests. Methodology was to find the association between stroke and memory in young adults diagnosed with acute and chronic stroke. Neuropsychological assessments post stroke memory assessment and mini mental state examination was used with patients from age 18- 59 years; 2 groups each with 10 patients were assessed as a survey. Result came to be strong positive association between PSMA and MMSE in both acute and chronic stroke. The study concluded with memory deficit more in chronic stroke than acute stroke.
