TRANSLINGUAL ELECTRICALSTIMULATION IN THE COMPLEX SYSTEM OF RESTORING THE FUNCTION OF MAIN- TAINING BALANCE IN PATIENTS WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF ACUTE CEREBRAL CIRCULATION DISORDERS

Abstract

A clinical evaluation of the effectiveness of the translingual electrical stimulation method in the system of complex treatment of violations of the function of maintaining static and dynamic balance in patients with long-term consequences of acute cerebral circulation in the vertebral-basilar pool was carried out. In order to improve stability, the patient trained the function of maintaining balance by consistently performing exercises in the standing position and in motion. A total of 6 patients were examined. Each of them received two courses of treatment with 10 procedures. During the second year, the exercises were supplemented with translingual electrical stimulation during the procedure. The total training time was 20 minutes per procedure. The following scales were used to evaluate the effectiveness: the Berg scale, The « Timed Up and Go» (TUG) for 10 meters, and ВАШ (patient satisfaction was evaluated). It is shown that the joint use of training in combination with translingual electrical stimulation is more effective than the isolated use of exercises, and it is well tolerated by patients, and contributes to their compliance. The absence of the need to use stationary equipment allows using the proposed method at all stages of rehabilitation treatment of patients with acute cerebral circulation disorders in the vertebral-basilar pool, including independently under the dynamic control of a doctor.
