A study of quality of life of elderly people who have had acute cerebrovascular accidents
was made using SF-36 questionnaire. There were interviewed 96 people – residents of Lviv
Geriatric boarding house (29 patients who have had acute cerebrovascular accident in different
period of time (a main group) and 67 individuals who had other diseases and did not have acute
cerebrovascular accident in history (a control group). There was established a decreased index of
quality of life for women compared to men in such general indices as the physical health, mental
health and general health status (in both groups). The physical component of health was estimated
higher and mental - lower in the main group of both men and women. The general health status
of men of the main and control groups and women of the main and control groups were almost
identical. The indices established show that the quality of life of women and men is middling.
