Kaufmann Method

Kaufmann method is a method for diagnosing and treating diseases of the nervous system, which was developed by German neurologist Franz Kaufmann at the beginning of the 20th century. This method is still widely used in neurology and psychiatry and is one of the most effective methods for diagnosing and treating neurological diseases.

Kaufmann developed his method based on his observations of patients and his study of their symptoms. He found that some patients had similar symptoms that could be related to various nervous system diseases.

For diagnosis, Kaufmann used various methods, including electroencephalography, electromyography and other methods. He also used various drugs to treat patients, including antidepressants and other medications.

Today, the Kaufmann method continues to be used in neurological practice and is one of the most effective methods for diagnosing and treating various diseases of the nervous system.

**Kaufmann method** is a medical history proposed by Dr. Paul Samuel Kaufmann, a famous German neurologist in the 19th century. He developed his system for assessing symptoms and diagnosing diseases of the central nervous system based on certain criteria.

Initially, Paul Kaufmann was a neurosurgeon who specialized in brain surgery. Gradually he began to study neurology, and his method began to be used to evaluate the mental and neurological conditions of patients. Subsequently, the method became popular and is used all over the world.

One of the key principles of the Kaufman method is that the patient's condition is assessed taking into account his ability to function in everyday life. For example, to assess the condition of a patient with paraplegia, impairments in walking and other motor activities associated with this function are first considered. The patient’s level of consciousness and intellectual abilities are also taken into account.

In general, the Kaufman method is based on the interaction of various psychomotor, sensory and cognitive functions that affect a person’s quality of life. This method is widely used in medicine and psychology, as well as in sports and recreation. However, for an accurate diagnostic assessment, it is advisable to use all diagnostic tools developed by more modern scientists.
