MATERIAL AND METHODS: We studied management rules for patients with NS and the effect of ceraxon (citicoline) on the functional rehabilitation and removal of the neglect syndrome. We analyzed treatment results of 120 stroke patients. The functional rehabilitation was followed up using Barthel, Lindmark and Merton and Sutton scales, cognitive functions were assessed with the MMSE scale and the battery of frontal dysfunction, psychoemotional condition with the Beck Depression Questionnaire. Moreover, treatment efficacy has been evaluated by the absence of NS signs. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Maintenance of management rules and use of ceraxon improved the functional rehabilitation of stroke patients with NS.
