    AbstractImpaired memory is a common consequence of ischemic stroke. Cognitive rehabilitation of memory is an essential component of any comprehensive rehabilitation program for these patients. Generalizable methods and methods to teach domain-specific knowledge are two principal means whereby impaired memory can be improved. Compensatory strategies can be taught to patients whose memory is not likely to improve. Cognitive remediation using these methods has been shown to be an effective intervention to treat memory deficits. More well-controlled, randomized studies are needed to further investigate the efficacy of the various interventions available.
