Pathogenetic and Clinical Features of the Recovery Period of Ischemic Stroke
Abstract
The data of a number of authors indicate that the first six months after the onset of stroke are fundamental in relation to the formation of the final neurological deficit, which determines the level of functional and everyday capabilities of the patient. Despite the fact that by the 3rd-4th week of stroke, the formation of a heart attack site is completed, a number of processes started at the very beginning of the disease, primarily the mechanisms of programmed cell death - apoptosis, permeability of the blood-brain barrier, and microcirculation disorders remain important. In the first 2 months after the onset of stroke, reparative and regenerative processes occur associated with collateral blood circulation in the area of injury, regression of edema, and absorption of necrotic tissues.
