Popis: The new COVID-19 coronavirus infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 is a global health threat. Neurological disorders detected in patients with coronavirus infection have a wide range of clinical signs: headache, dizziness, altered level of consciousness, acute ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. Evidence suggests that patients with more severe systemic symptoms were more likely to experience neurological symptoms. The main risk factors for the development of ischemic stroke in patients with coronavirus infection are considered. It was shown that COVID-19 more often occurred in people with vascular risk factors, among which the mortality rate was higher. Various possible and not mutually exclusive mechanisms which may play a role in the development of ischemic stroke in patients with COVID-19 are described in detail, including hyper-inflammatory state («cytokine storm»), «COVID-19-associated coagulopathy», and disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome. Stroke risk factors associated with the critical condition in these patients are presented. Stroke, the leading cause of death and disability worldwide, requires immediate treatment and decision-making as well as 24/7 availability for specialized vascular centers. The results of observation of patients with acute cerebral circulation disorder in specialized vascular centers 2 months before and 15 days after quarantine due to COVID-19 are presented. The tactics of managing patients with ischemic stroke under conditions of coronavirus infection is considered.
