Abstract The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of functional and motor activity restoration, including the walking function, in patients after an ischemic stroke using the ExoAtlet lower limb exoskeleton. Patients and methods. A clinical study was carried out on 42 patients who had undergone a cerebral infarction in the mid cerebral artery system with a post-stroke paresis of the leg, and who had undergone a rehabilitation course in a round-theclock hospital during the early recovery period. Patients were randomized into two equal groups comparable in terms of the stroke severity: the patients in group 1 were receiving a standard rehabilitation program (control group), the patients in group 2 were additionally receiving a course of gait rehabilitation using the ExoAtlet exoskeleton - 10 sessions, 5 sessions per week for 14 days. Results. The study demonstrated the effectiveness of the ExoAtlet exoskeleton used in the rehabilitation of stroke patients over the standard course of rehabilitation. The advantages include a decrease in the hemiparesis degree, an increase in the muscle strength of the paretic limb, an improvement in balance, an improvement and acceleration of the walking process. The obtained results of the instrumental study confirmed the benefits of physical training on the Exoskeleton, which was demonstrated through an increase in stability and balance, as well as through a decrease in the energy consumption index for maintaining the stable verticalization. Conclusion. The usage of the ExoAtlet exoskeleton increases the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures and improves motor and functional activities of patients who have suffered a cerebral stroke.

Walking function disorders are typical for patients after cerebral stroke. Biofeedback technology (BFB) is currently considered effective and promising for training walking function, including in patients after cerebral stroke. Most studies recognize that BFB training is a promising tool for improving walking function; however, the data on the use of highly selective walking parameters for BFB training are very limited. The aim of our study was to investigate the feasibility of using BFB training targeting one of the basic parameters of gait symmetry—stance phase duration—in cerebral stroke patients in the early recovery period. The study included 20 hemiparetic patients in the early recovery period after the first hemispheric ischemic stroke. The control group included 20 healthy subjects. The BFB training and biomechanical analysis of walking (before and after all BFB sessions) were done using an inertial system. The mean number of BFB sessions was nine (from 8 to 11) during the three weeks in clinic. There was not a single negative response to BFB training among the study patients, either during the sessions or later. The spatiotemporal parameters of walking showed the whole syndrome complex of slow walking and typical asymmetry of temporal walking parameters, and did not change significantly as a result of the study therapy. The changes were more significant for the functioning of hip and knee joints. The contralateral hip amplitude returned to the normal range. For the knee joint, the amplitude of the first flexion increased and the value of the amplitude of hyperextension decreased in the middle of the stance phase. Concerning muscle function, the observed significant decrease in the function of m. Gastrocnemius and the hamstring muscles on the paretic side remained without change at the end of the treatment course. We obtained positive dynamics of the biomechanical parameters of walking in patients after the BFB training course. The feasibility and efficacy of their use for targeted correction need further research.

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical outcome in the use of neuroprotective agents in the acute period of ischemic stroke. Material and Methods: The study was performed on the basis of the stroke of the Center for Reconstructive and Rehabilitation Medicine (University Clinic) of the Odessa National Medical University. A retrospective analysis of clinical outcomes of 115 patients with acute stroke was conducted. Results: An average NIHSS score at discharge was 4.1±0.1 points when treated with no refinery, then it reached 3.6±0.1 points when using peptidergic drugs, and 3.4±0.1 when using D-fdf. 3.1±0.1 points. When using D-FDF, the MMSE score was 3.5±0.1 points, whereas when using cholinergic agents, this index did not exceed 26.9±1.5 points, and when using peptidergic agents - 26.8±1.4 points. Conclusion: The use of neuroprotective agents positively affects the effectiveness of neuro-rehabilitation in patients with acute stroke. The best results in three months after the hospitalization were obtained for peptidergic agents and D-fructose-1,6-diphosphate.

Objective: To describe the prevalence and predictors of receipt of practical support among acute coronary syndrome (ACS) survivors during the early post-discharge period. Method: 406 ACS patients were interviewed about receipt of practical (instrumental and informational) support during the week after discharge. Demographic, clinical, functional, and psychosocial predictors of instrumental and informational practical support were examined. Results: 81% of participants reported receiving practical support during the early post-discharge period: 75% reported receipt of instrumental support and 51% reported receipt of informational support. Men were less likely to report receiving certain types of practical support, whereas married participants and those with higher education, impaired health literacy, impaired activities of daily living, and in-hospital complications were more likely to report receiving certain types of practical support. Conclusion: Receipt of practical support is very common among ACS survivors during the early post-discharge period, and type of support received differs according to patient characteristics.
