The dynamics of recovery were calculated by comparing scores obtained using special instruments upon admission to rehabilitation treatment and after it.Results. By analyzing the results of the study, a positive dynamic of recovery was established, confirming the effectiveness of an inpatient course of neurorehabilitation, which is expressed in an improvement in the condition of patients when assessed using the designated tools for its objectification.Conclusions.
