Abstract
Post stroke depression (PSD), which has been negatively correlated with increased stroke mortality and risk for recurrent stroke, affects nearly 30% of all stroke survivors and is often underdiagnosed and under treated. Evidence-based screening for PSD can lead to more accurate and early diagnosis and treatment for PSD.
