ABSTRACT
The aim of the study is to formulate the tactics of assigning adequate neuroprotective therapy to patients with postoperative cognitive dysfunctions on the basis of subtracting the indicator of the total cognitive deficiency. To achieve this goal, we conducted a study of cognitive function in patients of different age groups: young age, middle age, elderly age with acute surgical pathology before surgery and at 1, 7, 30 days after surgery compared with preoperative data. Methods of research. The study of the cognitive sphere: scale MMSE, test drawing hours, test "10 words", battery tests for frontal dysfunction, method Schulte. The indicator of the total cognitive deficiency was calculated. The results of the study of cognitive function made it possible to formulate a scheme for the use of citicoline and cytoflavin in a complex of therapeutic programs. In each age group, on the seventh day of the study, there were patients with different dynamics of cognitive function recovery for the preoperative period. This allowed us to develop and propose a formula for calculating the total cognitive deficit, which makes it possible to formulate appropriate tactics for managing patients in the subsequent period in each specific case. We determine the values ââof the percentage deviations of each study result from the norm and the indicator of the total cognitive deficit by the sum of the values ââof the percentage deviation from the norm of the results of the study of cognitive impairment.
