Limited evidence suggests a range of non-pharmacological interventions may improve the quality of life of older stroke survivors. However, evidence is limited by low study quality and the small number of studies targeting older stroke survivors. We recommend future studies explore such interventions exclusively in older adult populations and improve methodological and outcome reporting.
