In 79 stroke patients admitted to our department from 1983 to 1985, the recovery of activities of daily living (ADL) was studied in relation to aging and various types of neurological impairment.<BR>Among these types of neurological impairment, agnosia, apraxia, aphasia and intellectual decline were important factors influencing recovery of ADL. Only 37% of 27 patients with these forms of impairment were independent as regards ADL, while 98% of 52 patients without them were independent.<BR>The outcome of patients with these impairments was very poor, especially in those who were seventy and above. Only 9% of 11 patients were independent, while 56% of 16 patients with these impairments, who were under seventy, were independent.<BR>On the other hand, the outcome was very good in 15 patients without these impairments who were seventy and above. All of them were independent as regards ADL.<BR>It was suggested that the following types of neurological impairment -apraxia, agnosia, aphasia and intellectual decline-were very important factors influencing recovery of ADL, especially in stroke patients of seventy and above.
