METHOD OF TREATING PATIENTS WITH DEPRESSION OF CONSCIOUSNESS ACCOMPANYING ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKES

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine and aims at treating the patients with depression of consciousness accompanying acute ischemic strokes using a photochomotherapy with a monochrome green light. With underlying intensive therapy, the patients with depression of consciousness undergo the photochomotherapy involving the contact transorbital exposure on closed eyes alternately. The exposure represents the monochrome green light at average wave length 540 nm, maximum intensity 28.8 mWt, maximum power density 2.8 mWt/cm², radiant intensity 100%. The exposure length is 5 min for each eye. The exposure length increases by 1 min every next procedure. Once the exposure length reaches 10 min, the exposure length no longer increases. The treatment is started not later than 7 days after the moment of depression of consciousness after diagnosing. The therapeutic course consists of 8-10 daily procedures.;EFFECT: method enables extending the range of aids used in treating the patients with acute ischemic stroke accompanied by depression of consciousness which reduces the length of patient's coma and promotes beginning the rehabilitation actions at the earlier stage, increases the clinical effectiveness and reduces the risk of recurrent stroke, transient ischemic attacks and formation of Wernicke-Mann position.;3 ex
