Practicing a healthy lifestyle and adjusting the "three highs" can greatly reduce the risk of stroke.
Early identification of premonitory symptoms of stroke and rapid medical treatment are the key to reduce the mortality and disability rate of stroke, and the principle of rapidity is a very effective tool.
Stroke, commonly known as stroke, or cerebrovascular accident.
"Death" means haste and haste. As can be seen from the meaning, the disease of stroke happens very quickly, and suddenly, the patient is knocked down by the disease.
Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what?
Every year, more than150,000 people in the world suffer from stroke, among which 5 million people die and another 5 million people are disabled. Although most strokes occur in people over the age of 65, young people may also have strokes.
After all, what is a stroke?
Stroke is a group of diseases caused by cerebral vascular embolism or sudden rupture of cerebral blood vessels. The brain controls the whole body, and what symptoms appear after a stroke depends on the damaged part of the brain tissue.
Once you have a stroke, it is likely to cause you to be disabled, but this does not mean that a stroke is inevitable. We can also know in advance according to some omens. If treated in time, these symptoms are likely to be avoidable, which is why you should seek medical attention as soon as you find signs of stroke.
So, what are the signs of a stroke?
Remember the fast rule.
F-Face type, face type: whether one face is drooping and the corners of the mouth are skewed; Can you laugh?
A arm, arm: whether the arms are raised 10 second, and one hand cannot be raised or dropped after being raised.
S-Speech, speech: Is there any lisp?
T-Time, time: If you notice any of the above symptoms, call the emergency number quickly.
As soon as the ambulance arrives at the hospital, the doctor will immediately evaluate you, arrange a head emergency CT scan, and determine the location and type of stroke.
Stroke type
Stroke can be divided into ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. Ischemic stroke accounts for 60%-70% of the total number of strokes, so more attention should be paid to the prevention of ischemic stroke.
Embolism (ischemic stroke): it is mainly caused by the thrombus formed in the body falling off and blocking the cerebral vessels. Thrombosis can form in the brain or from other parts of the body. Such as the heart, when the heart rate is irregular, that is, atrial fibrillation, commonly known as "atrial fibrillation", it is easy to produce thrombosis.
Hemorrhage (hemorrhagic stroke): The etiology is mainly related to cerebrovascular diseases, and is often closely related to hypertension, diabetes and smoking. Its mortality rate is high, and most survivors have different degrees of motor disorders, speech disorders, cognitive disorders and so on.
No matter ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, brain cells will be unable to get blood supply, and irreversible ischemic necrosis will occur after long-term ischemia, followed by paralysis, aphasia, cognitive impairment and other serious sequelae, and even death.
Sometimes, the clinical symptoms of stroke will disappear completely within 24 hours, which is called "sudden death" or "transient ischemic attack", or TRA for short. Some symptoms of TRA last only a few minutes. Once TRA is suspected, it should be treated immediately like a full-scale stroke. Because TRA is a high-risk warning signal of complete stroke.
Whether you have TRA or a complete stroke, you should take medication, which will help prevent further stroke.
Although ischemic stroke may lead to disability, as long as it is well treated and nursed back to health, the risk of another stroke can be greatly reduced and a certain degree of rehabilitation can be achieved. This is why scientific health management after stroke is so important, but daily self-health management may be a difficult and lasting process.
Often can not take medicine on time, blindly take supplements, resulting in physical damage;
It is time-consuming and laborious to rush to the hospital for testing and registration regularly;
Lack of scientific management and guidance after discharge, blind tonic and nursed back to health, leading to a second recurrence;
If there is an emergency at home, you will often be caught off guard;
These troubles are common problems in the process of rehabilitation. The cloud platform of anticoagulation and thrombosis prevention medical service and the service system of "three divisions" (doctors, pharmacists and health managers) created by Dr. Ning will help you tide over the difficulties together.
1. Control blood pressure, which is the main cause of stroke.
2. Quit smoking and lower cholesterol.
3. Exercise more; Have a healthy diet
4. Drink moderately and reduce alcohol intake.
If you have diabetes at the same time, you should control your blood sugar.
