A stroke occurs suddenly as a result of a disturbance in cerebral circulation. Depending on the mode of onset, it differs ischemically from hemorrhagic stroke. In Croatia, stroke is the second leading cause of death and the leading cause of disability. As such, it requires urgent medical intervention. A multidisciplinary medical team consisting of neurology specialists, general practitioners, nurses, physiatrists, physiotherapists, psychologists, speech therapists and occupational therapists. participates in the treatment process. All of them must communicate and cooperate with each other in order to achieve patient recovery. It is very important to diagnose a stroke as early as possible so that treatment can be started as early as possible. Once the patient is cared for in the intensive care unit and after his general condition is stable, the rehabilitation process begins. Timely initiation of rehabilitation is also important as the greatest recovery of impaired functions takes place in the first three months after the onset of stroke. The functions most commonly affected after a stroke are mobility, gait, balance, coordination, mental functions, speech and sensation. The neurorehabilitation of these patients is based on neuroplasticity, the ability of nerve cells to change and reorganize, thus leading to the recovery of impaired functions. The goal of neurorehabilitation is to encourage motor learning that can be achieved by facilitating and inhibiting and repeating certain movements. Neurological concepts most commonly used for these purposes are the PNF concept, the Bobath concept, and, more recently, robotic neurorehabilitation. Each of these concepts is different, but their common goal is to recover impaired functions and return the patient to his daily activities, which will ultimately result in maintaining the patient's quality of life at a normal level.
