Abstract
32 patients in the early recovery period of ischemic stroke in the right and left hemispheres of the brain were examined in order to assess the level and characteristics of cognitive functions and anxiety-depressive disorders for planning personalized rehabilitation treatment. Pre-dementia was detected in 42.1% of patients according to the results of the Short Mental Status Assessment Scale (MMSE), which is more common in patients with left-hemisphere stroke. Clinical depression, as well as subclinical and clinical anxiety are detected more often in left-hemisphere stroke. The inverse correlation of the cognitive function index on the MMSE scale and the level of anxiety and depression on the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS) was revealed. All patients who have suffered a hemispheric stroke should undergo early cognitive and psychological rehabilitation, especially patients with lesions of the left hemisphere.
