PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: Studying the contribution of treatment adherence to the effective use of the Visual Medicine hardware and software complex (HSC) in the psychological rehabilitation of stroke patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The results of the use of APC in 81 patients undergoing a standard course of medical rehabilitation have been investigated (50 men and 31 women, average age 57.3±11.7 years). Compliance using the psycho-diagnostic questionnaire «Level of Compliance¼, which examines social, emotional and behavioral compliance; the state of higher mental functions (HMF) in dynamics by neuropsychological examination (tests for simultaneous and visual-spatial gnosis, kinesthetic, dynamic, spatial and constructive praxis) are studied. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: It is shown that the use of a hardware-software complex helps to recover motor skills. However, the degree of positive dynamics of changes in the HMF state depends on the contribution of patient adherence to treatment, in particular, their «social compliance¼. It has been established that preventive diagnostics of social compliance at the average level, according to the questionnaire «Level of compliance¼, can be an indication for inclusion in the rehabilitation plan of training sessions with the program «Visual Medicine¼. Deviation towards low or high values signals the appointment of a medical psychologist consultation with the aim of further psychocorrectional work to achieve the optimal level of social compliance.
