“…By the end of the acute stroke period, hemiparesis was observed in 81.2 % of patients who survived, including hemiplegia -11.2 %, severe and rough hemiparesis -11.1 %, mild and moderate hemiparesis -58.9 %. The indicators do not differ from data of other studies [3,4,7,9].…”

Introduction. The theoretical grounding and solution of the scientific problem, which consists in the study of factors that contribute to the improvement of patients with ischemic brain stroke rehabilitation, are presented in this paper; it is a study of modern methods of rehabilitation and their effectiveness. The objective of the study was to find out reasons why the conducted research shows the significant importance of the use of kinesitherapy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, and psychotherapy in the system of early rehabilitation of patients. Based on the study, we established that the lateralization of brain lesions is an important factor that affects the rehabilitation potential of patients. The signs of motor impairment and cognitive deterioration in patients with ischemic stroke requires the development of individual and intensive rehabilitation measures in order to restore brain function and adequate treatment of all possible manifestations that impair the effectiveness of rehabilitation and the quality of patients’ life after ischemic stroke. In addition, our task was to study the incidence of post-stroke depressive disorders and their relationship with psychosocial factors. Material and methods. The empirical part was performed by collecting information about 60 patients who were treated and had initial rehabilitation in the early recovery period in the stroke unit. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the timing of recovery to assess the likelihood of post-stroke depression and recovery against time. The analysis of data obtained after processing of materials was carried out using Microsoft Excel’16 program. Statistical processing of the results was carried out by the method of variational statistics using the Student’s test. The data were collected from patients with cerebral circulation disorders of Communal Institution in the neurology unit of Sumy City Council “City Clinical Hospital No.4”. Study results: It was established that gender is not a determining factor in the recovery of patients after ischemic stroke and does not significantly impact the rehabilitation prognosis. The most effective factors in recovering lost functions and skills after an ischemic stroke were complexity, phasing, and early start of rehabilitation measures. Post-stroke depression is a common consequence of ischemic stroke and 54 (90 %) patients (p < 0.05) have it. The characteristic feature of depression in post-stroke patients was the persistence of symptoms, mild and moderate degree of severity, criticism of their condition, etc. Depressive disorders were complex, polymorphic, and included signs of both organic depression and personal response to the development of brain damage. The relationship of depression with the severity of neurological deficits, localization of the focus, as well as with psychosocial factors such as lonely living, loss of work, high social and professional status were shown. Further study of cognitive impairment and the role of specialists in solving the problem of their correction is required. Thus, a complete clinical-neurological and rehabilitation characteristic of patients with different baseline data and conditions is given, based on the results of our own research

Back Background ground Strokes result in devastating consequences to both the survivors and caregivers, therefore it is important that it is appropriately managed and caregivers are well supported. In order to do this effectively, we need a better understanding of the challenges faced by stroke survivors and their caregivers, in a country with limited provisions for rehabilitation. Our aim was to explore the experiences of stroke survivors and their caregivers' 1-year post discharge from stroke rehabilitation in Bangladesh. Methods Methods Twenty stroke survivors and their caregivers were selected for our qualitative, single-centred study. Participants were chosen using a convenience sampling method. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect data during face-to-face interviews. Six themes were deciphered following analysis of the data collected.

Dysphagia (Greek. Dys + phagein – eat, swallow) – is a violation of swallowing, in which there is a feeling of discomfort or difficulty in transporting the food bolus from the mouth to the stomach. Because the disorder of the act of swallowing in stroke is usually of neurogenic origin and is defined by a number of neurologic disturbances and dysfunctions, it is better to use the term "neurogenic dysphagia" for patients with acute disturbance of cerebral circulation. The urgency of this problem is especially emphasized in the development of a set of therapeutic exercises for such socially important disease as acute cerebrovascular accident. One of the formidable complications of stroke is a violation of the act of swallowing. This leads to a significant reduction in quality of life increasing the risk of secondary complications, which, in turn, significantly increases the likelihood of death. Violation of the act of swallowing is observed in 26–45% of patients due to acute ischemic stroke. Dysphagia leads to the development of life-threatening complications such as aspiration pneumonia, dehydration, and significantly reduces the quality of life of such patients. Thus, the correction of the act of swallowing by means of physical rehabilitation after brain injury is a very important task of the rehabilitologist. For a long time, speech therapy was the only method of rehabilitation of dysphagia; now we can widely use therapeutic exercises to restore the functions of facial muscles and masticatory muscles. Screening for swallowing disorders allows us to assess the function of the masticatory muscles in five stages, which makes it possible to develop a more individual and thorough set of therapeutic exercises after each stage of the screening study. Depending on the phase of swallowing in which disorders are observed, we have developed an individual set of therapeutic exercises that will be performed by the patient in each of the five stages of the screening study, if the patient could not overcome this stage.
