title: [Age-related brain energy activity in patients after traumatic cranio-cerebral injury and brain infarction].
abstract: Stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI) are disabling diseases, which determine the medical and social relevance of the rehabilitation. Age is one of the important risk factor and course factors of stroke. The aim of this research was to study features of the restoration of cognitive function and brain activity in patients undergoing ischemic stroke and TBI. 72 persons were examined (43 males, 29 females; mean age 37.51 +/- 42.97 years). Brain DC potentials were recorded in all patients before and after rehabilitation treatment. Age factor plays an important role in the process of cerebral recovering after brain injury. In patients before 40 years but not after 40 years the rehabilitation was connected with increasing of right hemisphere activity. In patients older 40 years the restoration of cerebral functions was connected with activity of left brain hemisphere.
