Summary:A new classification is substantiated of motor syndromes in patients with hemispheric cerebral insult. The classification is represented by six syndromes, it takes advantage of the degree of upper and lower monoparesis, relation between the two, condition of muscular tone, ability of people to help themselves, to cope in their homes, and other items. Correctness of the classification has been confirmed by the method of correlation analysis and parameters of stimulation electromyography. The use of the classification will, we believe, help in administering the relevant rehabilitative therapy treatments in a more efficient way.
