Abstract: The high prevalence of ischemic stroke and high mortality from it with increasing disability of such patients currently makes the problem of vascular diseases of the brain one of the most socially significant and requiring additional research.  Conducting physical rehabilitation in post-stroke patients according to the author's scheme had a pronounced positive effect on their hematological parameters, regardless of their initial state.  Wellness measures ensured in all patients who had an ischemic stroke a gradual optimization of the number of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in the blood.  The upcoming changes created conditions for improving trophic tissue of patients, increased their overall reactivity and minimized the risk of repeated ischemic damage to brain tissue.  The results suggest that the author's option of rehabilitation of post-stroke patients is highly promising in terms of ensuring adequate activation of the bone marrow regardless of the initial level of erythropoiesis, leukopoiesis and thrombocytopoiesis.  This prevents anemia, weakening of resistance and thrombophilia in such patients, optimizing the general condition and significantly improving the prognosis for the disease and for life.
