Abstract
Motoric cognitive risk (MCR) syndrome and cognitive frailty (CF) are relatively new predementia syndromes that represent changes from baseline cognition that may be reversible or nonprogressive. Rehabilitation therapists may be the first clinicians to identify the symptoms of MCR syndrome and CF, of subjective cognitive complaints with the associated gait or strength impairments. Adopting screening tools in clinical practice and health screening events may help to identify these syndromes early and provide the opportunity for medical and lifestyle interventions to potentially minimize progression.
