Abstrakt		The aim of the present study was to find out the influence of the new symptoms on independet living and the most frequent disabilities in patients with post-polio syndrome in Slovenia in comparison with post polito survivors without post-polio syndrome. We sent a questionnarie to all the post polio survivors (207) who visited the Rehabilitation Institute in Ljubljana in the last ten years at least once. We got a 100 filled answers, which were analysed by SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences). 69 reported that they had new symptoms which may be classaified as post-polio syndrome.
