In 40 patients with ischemic stroke in the vertebrobasilar basin,complex assessment of disturbances of patients equilibrium andsteadiness was carried out in the early restorative period, includingrespective clinical scales and stabilometry. Compared withcommonly used in clinical practice non-instrumental assessment,the introduction of stabilometric criteria helps to improvethe diagnostics of equilibrium/stability changes and allows controllingobjectively the patients condition on treatment and furtherfollow-up, thus increasing the efficiency of rehabilitationprocedures.
