Description
Summary:INTRODUCTION. Disorders of vision and oculomotor functions are widespread among patients who have suffered a cerebral stroke. The rehabilitation system for patients who have suffered a stroke makes use of physiotherapy methods that can significantly improve haemodynamic processes and regeneration. Among the best-known physiotherapeutic methods is drug electrophoresis. MAIN CONTENT OF THE REVIEW. This review discusses the results of studies investigating the efficacy of electrophoresis techniques using various drugs developed for use in patients after stroke, including those complicated by visual impairment, based on publications in the international and domestic databases PubMed, Medline, Cochrane Library, and eLIBRARY.RU. CONCLUSION. At present, there are already prerequisites for further development of the method of endonasal electrophoresis of neuroprotective drugs in patients with post-stroke after-effects. The application of this technique is most suitable for patients suffering from a stroke and concomitant visual impairments. However, these approaches are still under investigation and require randomized trials to ascertain their clinical efficacy in a representative patient population.
