[Clinical expert classification of chronic cerebrovascular insufficiency]. 1987

Z N Grigorian, and Iu S Tunian

Basing on the results of an analysis and systematization of the findings of comprehensive examination of 519 patients the authors identified complexes of characteristic criteria which have served as the basis for creating a classification of chronic insufficiency of cerebral circulation (CICC) developing in cases of cerebral atherosclerosis, essential hypertension, and their combination. With regard to the stage of CICC and expert significance of either clinical manifestations of this disorder in relation to different types of professions a working scheme of medical expert examination of patients' working capacity is proposed.

D002561	Cerebrovascular Disorders	A spectrum of pathological conditions of impaired blood flow in the brain. They can involve vessels (ARTERIES or VEINS) in the CEREBRUM, the CEREBELLUM, and the BRAIN STEM. Major categories include INTRACRANIAL ARTERIOVENOUS MALFORMATIONS; BRAIN ISCHEMIA; CEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE; and others.

D002908	Chronic Disease	Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care (Dictionary of Health Services Management, 2d ed). For epidemiological studies chronic disease often includes HEART DISEASES; STROKE; CANCER; and diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 2).
