ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION. Proprioceptive deficits are one of the common sensory impairments after stroke and have a negative impact on motor activity.

AIM. Evaluation of the effect of stabilization training on the dynamics of clinical and functional indices and the efficiency of motor rehabilitation in patients after stroke.

MATERIAL AND METHODS. The dynamics of motor (motor functions, activity) and non-motor (cognitive and emotional volitional) consequences of stroke, as well as the quality of life under the influence of complex application of stabilization training with the use of scales (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, Medical Research Council Scale, Modified Ashworth Scale of muscle spasticity, «Memory for images» and «10 words», Schulte-Platonov Table, Lusher Color Test, The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale), International Classification of Functioning (ICF), EQ-5D questionnaire and stabilography method. The effectiveness of motor rehabilitation was evaluated by the dynamics of the integral index of health level.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. After complex rehabilitation in stroke patients the regression of neurological disorders was detected (almost half of patients after rehabilitation showed mild degree of impairment, in 6 % of cases full recovery of paretic leg muscle strength was achieved, the share of patients with severe and moderate paresis decreased, hypertonicity of paretic muscles decreased). Complementing the complex of motor rehabilitation with stable exercise led to a decrease in the degree of functional limitations (in 48.5 % of patients after rehabilitation the Hauser walking index indicated a mild degree of walking disorder, patients became able to walk around the room without using aids, reduced dependence on others in everyday life), improved quality of balance function and quality of life, a positive impact on the psychoemotional state of patients and increased effectiveness of rehabilitation measures.

CONCLUSION. Stabilotraining application in the complex of motor rehabilitation of patients allowed to improve walking and balance functions, psycho-emotional state of patients, to increase their quality of life and, accordingly, to increase the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures after stroke.
