The aim of the study is the development and scientific substantiation of the effectiveness and safety of multimodal rehabilitation technology using innovative digital technologies, biofeedback (BFB), virtual reality (VR), neurointerface for the restoration of stato-locomotor disorders, neuromuscular control of upper limb movements and cognitive functions in patients with ischemic stroke (IS) in different recovery periods with rehabilitation risks control in outpatient clinic.
The object of the study The study will include 90 patients (men and women) with the diagnosis of ischemic stroke (IS) in the early recovery (up to 6 months) and late recovery (6-12 months) periods with stato-locomotor disturbances, dysfunction (violation of neuromuscular movement control) of the upper limb (UL), mild or moderate cognitive impairment. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of three experimental groups - 2 main groups in the early (30 patients) and in the late recovery period (30 patients) of IS and 1 comparison group (30 patients) in the early and late recovery periods of IS. Each participant of the study will be assigned an ordinal number. Patients of the 1st and 2nd main groups are planned to undergo a rehabilitation course with multimodal correction, depending on the severity of functional and neuropsychological disturbances with the use of FBF-stabilometric training, cognitive-motor training with double and triple tasks in a virtual environment, functional individually programmed stimulation of antagonist muscles of the lower limb (FES), training of subject-manipulative activity for the restoration of fine hand movements on the glove simulator "SensoRehab"; when severe and moderate paresis of the upper limb, the neurointerface "Exokist-3" with EEG registration will be used. The mode of application of multimodal correction technology: 15 procedures, 2-3 times a week, the duration of the course is 5-8 weeks. The total duration of one procedure is 2-3 hours a day. Multimodal correction technology will not be included in the rehabilitation program of patients in the comparison group.

Fugl-Meyer Upper Extremity Scale (FMA-UE) dynamic
The FMA UE Scale comprises 33 items, each scored on a scale of0 to 2, where 0 = cannot perform, 1 = performs partially and2 = performs fully. It is free, requires only household items fortesting, and takes up to 30 minutes to administer. Changes in sections A-D of the FMA-UE Scale by 7 points or more are considered as efficacy.
Time frame: Baseline, day 7, day 15 of MT and 6 weeks after completing training
Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) Scale dynamic
The Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) is a 19 item observational measures. Items comprising the ARAT are categorized into four subscales (grasp, grip, pinch and gross movement) and arranged in order of decreasing difficulty, with the most difficult task examined first, followed by the least difficult task. Task performance is rated on a 4-point scale, ranging from 0 (no movement) to 3 (movement performed normally). Changes in the total ARAT Scale score by 4 points or more more are considered as efficacy.

Change from Baseline in 10 Metre Walk Test
The individual walks without assistance for 10 meters, with the time measured for the intermediate 6 meters to allow for acceleration and deceleration. The total time taken to ambulate 6 meters is recorded Timing starts when the toes pass the 2-meter mark Timing stops when the toes pass the 8-meter mark
Time frame: Baseline, day 7, day 15 of MT and 6 weeks after completing training
Change from Baseline in Tinetti test
The Tinetti-test is used to assess the gait and balance, perception of balance and stability during activities of daily living.The Tinetti test has a gait score and a balance score. It uses a 3-point ordinal scale of 0, 1 and 2. Gait is scored over 12 and balance is scored over 16 totalling 28. The lower the score on the Tinetti test, the higher the risk of falling.

Changes in level of impairment or dependence in daily life
Barthel Index.The Barthel Scale/Index (BI) is an ordinal scale used to measure performance in activities of daily living (ADL). Ten variables describing ADL and mobility are scored, a higher number being a reflection of greater ability to function independently following hospital discharge.Each item is rated in terms of whether the patient can perform the task independently, with some assistance, or is dependent on help based on observation (0=unable, 1=needs help, 2=independent). The final score is x 5 to get a number on a 100 point score. Proposed guidelines for interpreting Barthel scores are that scores of 0-20 indicate "total" dependency, 21-60 indicate "severe" dependency, 61-90 indicate "moderate" dependency, and 91-99 indicates "slight" dependency.

Changes of Life quality assessment
European Quality of Life Questionnaire EuroQol EQ-5D-5L (version 1.0, 2011 in combination with the visual analogue scale). Health State: The respondent classifies his or her prevailing state of health by selecting one of three different levels of problem severity within each of five health domains. The levels are none, moderate and severe/extreme (coded 1 through 3, respectively), whilst the domains are mobility, capacity for self-care, conduct of usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression, ordered as such. Evaluation: The respondent then evaluates his or her health using a visual analogue scale (VAS). This is a vertical, calibrated, line, bounded at 0 ("worst imaginable health state") and at 100 ("best imaginable health state"). Respondents indicate where they perceive their present state of health to lie, relative to these anchors.
