#134: Cognition and MS at ECTRIMS: Understanding and Managing Cognitive Decline

#134: Cognition and MS at ECTRIMS: Understanding and Managing Cognitive Decline

In this solo episode from ECTRIMS 2023, I share the highlights from the inspiring lecture by Prof. Maria Pia Amato on cognition and multiple sclerosis. Cognitive changes are common in MS and affect nearly half of all patients – from attention and memory to language and executive function.

You will learn:

  • How cognitive impairment appears across the MS spectrum (including CIS, RIS, pediatric MS, and aging).

  • Why regular cognitive screening matters and which tools are recommended.

  • Insights into the underlying mechanisms of cognitive decline.

  • The role of cognitive reserve and lifestyle in protecting brain health.

  • Management approaches from DMTs to cognitive rehabilitation and digital tools.

  • Future directions in MS research and patient care.

Cognition is increasingly recognized as a core focus in MS care. This episode explains why – and what you can do about it.
