Abstract

|
|
|
In a 36-month period, 23 selected Patients with Acute Cerebral Infarction were studied utilizing Computerized Tomography, Barthel Index in an attempt to correlate Brain Computerized Tomography findings with 1week, 4weeks rehabilitation and evaluate the influences of the size and location of the lesion. The study suggested that the size of the lesion had impact on 4 weeks rehabilitation. There was significant different between the patients with Middle Cerebral Artery Pial Territory Infarction(I.P.B.M.C.A.) lesion and the patients with Lacunar Infarction(L.I.), Striatocapsular Infarction(S.C.I.), Internal Watershed Infarction(I.W.I.) lesion, but there was no significant difference between the patients with L.I. lesion and the patients with S.C.I. lesion and the patients with I.W.I. lesion. The size and location of the lesion should be considered together in predicting the functional outcomes of Acute Cerebral Infarction.
