Treatment of post-stroke depression as a factor in improving the life quality of patients on the rehabilitation phase
Abstract
Depression prevents the rehabilitation of patients and also is connected with the low quality of life. We examined 30 patients with post-stroke depression in 1-12 months of the ischemic stroke. Patients took antidepressant fluvoxamine for 6 weeks. Neurological, psychopathological and psychometric investigations in dynamics were carried out. It is established that the preparation is efficient both for treatment of depression and anxiety of patients who had ischemic stroke as well as it facilitates the rise of quality of life of these patients.
