Abstract

The state, of high psychic functions depending on the ischemic focus localization and disease gravity in the early recovery period of the ischemic insult is studied in 51 patients with left and right hemisphere insult. The neuropsychologic examination is performed using A. P. Luriyas method with tests for assessment of all kinds of praxis, gnosis, memory, speech, intellectual processes. The additional assessment of the functional state of various cerebral zones is given. The disorders of praxis (dynamic, postural, spatial), of visual-constructive activity, aural and speech memory, count, visual and acoustic gnosis prevail in the early recovery period. This suggests the disfunction of posterofrontal, temporal and parietal structures vascularized principally by the region of the middle cerebral artery.
