Experience in the use of cerebral oximetry at the stages of early rehabilitation of patients with ischemic stroke

Abstract

Stroke as the cause of death stably ranks second in world reports of the World Health Organization. Recently, one of the most pressing problems is the rehabilitation of this category of patients. The authors analyzed the realities of the modern approach to the verticalization of patients with acute disorders of the cerebral circulation and checked the possibility of improving control over it. The article condemns the possibility of using the method of early vertical introspection at the stage of early verticalization for possible prevention of perfusion complications with disturbance of oxygenation of the brain tissue during verticalization. A study of groups with ischemic strokes in carotid basins was carried out. Data were obtained on a significant decrease in cerebral oximetry indices during early verticalization in this category of patients. Conclusions are drawn on the need for further study with the purpose of introducing this technology into recommendations for the rehabilitation of patients with ischemic stroke.
