Clinical and neurophysiological analysis of correction of mild cognitive impairment in patients with dyscirculatory encephalopathy
Annotatsiya
Mnestic and mental disorders in cerebrovascular diseases are of great interest not only for neurologists, but also for medical specialists in related areas - neurosurgeons, therapists, psychiatrists. Cognitive disorders often complicate the course and prognosis of acute and chronic cerebrovascular disease [5]. According to the classification of E.V. Schmidt (1975), the term "dyscirculatory encephalopathy" (DE) is traditionally used to define the chronic form of cerebral vascular insufficiency [10]. Different stages of the disease are characterized by different degree of severity and type of cognitive impairment. The presence of such disorders in patients with DE is a criterion for a more accurate staging of the disease. In our opinion, if the degree of cognitive impairment is compared with the severity of cerebrovascular disease, then mild cognitive impairment corresponds to stage I-II DE [11].
