Abstract

The introduction of statokinesitherapy with biological feedback into combined rehabilitative treatment of the patients presenting with coronary heart disease associated with arterial hypertension and clinical manifestations of dyscirculatory encephalopathy and/or vertebrobasilar insufficiency reduced the severity of clinical symptoms of cerebral syndromes. Specifically, it resulted in the decreased frequency of dizziness and shaky walk, improved coordination and sense of equilibrium, enhanced postural stability in the vertical position. The positive dynamics of clinical manifestations was confirmed by the results of stabilometry that suggested decreased deviation from the centre of pressure in the frontal and saggital directions and diminished total area of the statokinesiogram.
