THE EVOLUTIVE MODALITY OF THE PSYCHIC DISORDERS DEVELOPED IN PATIENTS WITH CEREBROVASCULAR DISEASE
Abstract:
Medical research has revealed that the cerebro-vascular disease and the mental disorders
coexist. The purpose of this prospective research paper is to determine the incidence of mental disorders
among patients suffering from cerebro-vascular diseases, the topographical and temporal correlation
between the cerebro-vascular diseases and the psychopathology they develop, as well as the evolution of
the psychic manifestations. The group of patients included 110 cases hospitalised in the Neurology
Hospital in Sibiu in 2009-2010 and needed examination or long term psychiatric assistance after the
beginning of the cerebro-vascular disease. The research showed that 70 -79 years old is the most
affected group age (38.16% women and 32.25% men). Although from a numerical point of view
paroxysmal and transitory psychic disorders prevail, this is a false conclusion, because a significant
percentage of them are nothing but different ways of beggining for the permanent mental disorders.
