Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) is a disorder that affects a person’s ability to think and remember. VCI is predominately caused by different conditions that interrupt the flow of blood and oxygen supply to the brain and damage blood vessels in the brain. Any of the multiple causes of stroke that impair blood vessels (e.g., hypertension and diabetes) can contribute to vascular cognitive impairment.
