Abstract
Particular care needs to be taken in interpreting MoCA-intact performance for right hemisphere patients due to its poor sensitivity to right hemisphere deficits. Scoring maximum points within a MoCA-specified domain also does not necessarily indicate intact cognitive functioning in that domain. Clinicians should consider supplementing their MoCA assessment with additional tools to increase the test accuracy of detecting relevant cognitive impairments post-stroke.
