Article

This article focuses on approaches and techniques for effective cognitive
rehabilitation with people who have multiple sclerosis (MS). The patterns of
preserved versus disrupted neuropsychological functions are reviewed. The
relevant brain anatomy and physiology that underlie the common neurocognitive and
neurobehavioral changes are described. The essential role is highlighted of
comprehensive neuropsychological, speech language pathology, and clinical
evaluations in the design and refinements of cognitive retraining treatment. The
functional impact of cognitive problems expected with MS is emphasized,
accompanied by examples of cognitive retraining approaches used to manage them
and improve day-to-day performance.
