Abstract

The efficacy of neyromidin in the treatment of motor disturbances after ischemic stroke (IS) was studied. The study included 60 patients with left middle cerebral artery stroke. The diagnosis was made on the basis of general clinical methods as well as the neurological examination, computed tomography (CT) scan of the head, investigation of hemodinamic parameters, ECG, ultrasound dopplerography of main head arteries, biochemical blood tests. Patients were divided into two equal groups: patients in the acute phase of stroke (main group) and patients in the early rehabilitation phase (comparison group). The groups were matched for sex, age, clinical features of the disease. Neyromidin was administered for 60 days. After the completion of the treatment with neyromidin, an improvement of the neurological status as well as an enhancement of motor functions in patients with moderate and severe paresis of the leg were observed in 30 patients with acute ischemic stroke.
