Abstract Cognitive impairment of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is one of the most common cognitive disorders. It has a high incidence and results in heavy social burden; thus, it is essential to provide reasonable diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice. Based on the results of clinical research and related reports, combined with the actual situation in China, we propose a diagnosis and treatment guideline for cognitive impairment of CSVD.
