Observational assessment of communication disorders in vascular dementia patients with right hemisphere damage

After stroke, communication disability often occurs, with left side brain‐damaged (LBD) patients having aphasia and right side brain‐damaged (RBD) patients having deficits in conversation, despite their apparent lack of any language disability. Herein, we developed an original scale, the Daily Communication Assessment Scale (DCAS) and compared the scores from the RBD and left side brain‐damaged patients with their matched Mini‐Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores.
