The aim of the project is to confirm the effectiveness and safety of the ABAStroke technology, which uses the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) in the rehabilitation of cognitive deficits in patients after strokes. The study is comparative in nature, where a group of 100 patients will be included in this randomized study, divided equally into a study group and a control group. The purpose of the study is also to demonstrate that this non-invasive new rehabilitation technology based on the ABAStroke computer software supports the process of rehabilitation in the field of cognitive functions together with standard pharmacological therapy, including the possibility of using rehabilitation (as recommended by researchers and other doctors conducting rehabilitation of a patient after a stroke brain). ABAStroke can lead to improved cognitive functions (such as abstraction, short-term memory, visuospatial functions, executive functions, language, verbal fluency, allopsychic orientation, and attention) and is delivered via a mobile device app that can be used at home.

The total time of the study is 30 weeks in total, i.e. 15 weeks of patient recruitment and then a maximum of another 15 weeks until the end of the observation of the last patient. Within 2 weeks from the last patient, the last Monitor's visit will be performed to close the study. The patient will use the ABAStroke application for a maximum of 91 days (the minimum time is 28 days) and standard therapy, including rehabilitation (as recommended by researchers or other physicians rehabilitating a patient after a stroke).
