Kinesiotherapy After Ischemic Stroke

Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate the efficiency of the physio - kinesiotherapy recovery in young and elderly patients who had a transient stroke, as well as an ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke. The studies of case were conducted at the National Institute of Recovery, Physical Medicine and Balneoclimatology of Bucharest, in the Recovery Department no 1. The admission note, anamnesis, X-ray and MRI data and observations following the clinical examination were considered for each patient separately. A recovery program was developed taking into account the patients’ characteristics depending on age and gender. The research results highlight that both patients were fortunate enough not to have any other strokes. The lady had an excellent evolution; on the other hand, the evolution of the man was spectacular, as he had a rather sever stroke followed by a recovery of 70%, with the recommendation to continue the program.
