[Dynamics of the functional state of the brain in acute focal ischemia]
Abstract:
Complex clinical-neurophysiological investigation of 200 patients with cerebral acute focal ischemia was carried out. It included polymodal monitoring of brain functional activity: monitoring of electroencephalography (EEG), compressed spectral array and toposelective mapping of somatosensory evoked potentials, acoustic short-latency evoked potentials, transcranial cortical electric stimulation, electromyo- and electroneuromyography. The development of acute focal cerebral ischemia was shown to be independent of its location, kind and prognosis, accompanied by functional reorganization of whole brain: its supersegmented specialized motor and sensory functional systems, nonspecific formations of segmental peripheral system. These changes in cerebral functional activity can be found already during first hours of ischemia and they remain generalized during 3-5 days.
