Abstract

The work is devoted to determining the characteristics of the cognitive sphere in patients who underwent thrombectomy for thrombotic occlusion in the early postoperative period.

During 2023—2024, a prospective study of 96 patients who underwent thrombectomy for thrombotic occlusion was conducted at the Center for Roentgen Endovascular Neurosurgery of the Kyiv City Clinical Hospital No. 1 (Kyiv, Ukraine). The study of early psychiatric consequences took place in the early postoperative period — on the 7—8th day after surgery using clinicalanamnestic, clinical-psychopathological and psychodiagnostic research methods. The severity of cognitive deficit was determined using the Trail Making Test (TMT, R. M. Reitan and D. Wolfson, 1993), the Stroop Color Word Interference Test (J. R. Stroop, 1935), and the Luria's Ten Unrelated Words Test (A. R. Luria, 1969)

The features of the cognitive sphere in patients who underwent thrombectomy for thrombotic occlusion in the early postoperative period were determined. Thus, the cognitive profile of this contingent of patients was characterized by significant dysfunction of processes, in particular, a decrease in the ability to concentrate, maintain and switch attention, significant rigidity of associative processes, a tendency to rapid exhaustion, and significant damage to memory processes with a plateau-like variant of memorization

The obtained data on the features of the cognitive sphere of patients in the acute postoperative period will allow forming the basis for a system of comprehensive rehabilitation of patients, which will correspond to the principles of personalized medicine.
