Abstract
Cerebrovascular diseases are currently the leading public health problem in industrialized countries, and depression is the fourth major health problem. Today the association between depression and stroke is considered definite. Depression is the most common psychiatric disorder associated with cerebrovascular diseases, occurring in 26% to 34% of patients within two years post-stroke. There is a correlation between the severity of post-stroke depression and localization of cerebral lesion, i.e. the closer the lesion to the left frontal lobe region, the higher the incidence and severity of depression. Early detection and treatment have become the basic goals of modern medicine. Attempts at preventing the development of post-stroke depression have been less successful to date. Treatment is quite successfully performed with the use of psychotherapy, psychopharmacotherapy, electroconvulsive therapy and rehabilitation. The biopsychological model provides an insight into the multifactorial etiology of the mental and physical disorders of post-stroke depression, which is a precondition for comprehensive and fully successful treatment.
