The trial was designed to test the hypothesis that early treatment with nimodipine has a positive effect on cognition impairment after acute ischemic stroke.
656 patients diagnosed with acute cerebral ischemia disease (onset≤7d) based on ICD-10 and CT/MRI criteria, who have cognitive impairment meeting all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria, will be included and randomized into nimodipine treatment group and the controlled group.Evaluations of cognitive function will be taken at baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months.
