title: [Evaluation of the condition of patients with post-stroke hemiplegia and the progress in their rehabilitation].
abstract: The authors describe a method of documentation for assessing the condition of the patient on the basis of own experiences with over 1200 patients after stroke and a review of the pertinent literature. In a comprehensive evaluation of the condition of the patient after beginning of rehabilitation treatment and after its completion the participants were: the attending physician, a neuropsychologist, a kinesitherapeutist and a logopedist. All aspects having an influence on the functional state were taken into consideration: motor ability, contact with the surroundings, psychic state, sphincter control, cardiovascular efficiency, ventilatory efficiency, sensory function, general functioning. This method makes possible a reliable, objective and comparable documentation to be obtained, which facilitates assessment of the progression in treatment and the methods used in the treatment.
