Grant Activity:
Cardiovascular exercise to prevent cognitive decline in high risk patient populations: a post-ischaemic stroke exercise intervention study
Purpose:
The major risk factors for post-stroke brain shrinkage and cognitive decline are recurrent stroke, high blood pressure, and physical inactivity. We will use advanced imaging to accurately measure brain volume and cognition in 100 stroke patients. We will examine whether patients who receive an aerobic exercise intervention after stroke have preserved brain volume, and preserved cognition, over a year. We will answer the question: does exercise stop your brain from shrinking after stroke?
