Abstract：Objective To investigate the application of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) in cognitive function evaluation for stroke patients during convalescence. Methods 127 stroke patients were selected and both Mo-CA and MMSE were conducted to assess their cognitive function. Results The detection rate was higher with MoCA (86.61%) than with MMSE (57.48%) (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared to MMSE, MoCA covers a broader scope of cognitive function, and is more sensitive.
