1, can it be cured?
Stroke was originally a term of traditional Chinese medicine, and in modern times it has become a general term for cerebrovascular diseases. Cerebral thrombosis, cerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage and other diseases can all be called stroke. Stroke is characterized by severe headache, vomiting, disturbance of consciousness or hemiplegia, mouth-eye deviation, weakness or sensory disturbance of one limb and language disorder.
Stroke hemiplegia is generally treated by a variety of methods, the first is to seek medical advice in time. Once the disease is found, it should be sent to the hospital for systematic treatment immediately. Don't delay time at home, so as not to delay your illness or even endanger your life. Secondly, stay in bed, especially for patients with cerebral hemorrhage, and don't move to avoid bleeding again. Patients with cerebral infarction should take vasodilators or carry out thrombolytic therapy. Taking traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis and dredging collaterals, plus acupuncture, massage and physical therapy, is very helpful for the rehabilitation of stroke hemiplegia. Rehabilitation training should be carried out immediately after the condition is stable, from sitting up to standing up and getting out of bed, and slowly recovering. The disease can be cured if it is mild and treated properly and promptly.
Stroke hemiplegia actually refers to the sequelae after stroke, and the patient may have decreased activity of one or both limbs, or even be unconscious. But you can't judge by these. If there is persistent headache, it is mainly fixed in the same position, which is a sign of the deterioration of the condition. All kinds of motor functions are blocked. When walking normally, they suddenly feel weak, fall to the ground, and even lose their language ability. These symptoms can be used to judge the occurrence of stroke hemiplegia. Then when family members take care of stroke hemiplegia patients in their daily lives, they need to take the following measures to help patients return to normal as soon as possible.
2, life care
1, we should do a good job in patients' psychological construction, constantly give patients confidence, and don't let patients lose their belief in healing. Sometimes the disease itself is not terrible, and what is ultimately defeated is human will.
2. Observe the patient's condition changes at all times, mainly focusing on the patient's mental state, understanding ability and various life characteristics. If there are signs of improvement, go to the hospital for diagnosis in time.
3, do a good job of turning over, because there is a stroke hemiplegia, the body can't voluntary movement according to their own ideas, turning over is very difficult, the patient's family should do a good job of turning over every day, otherwise bedsores will appear, aggravating the illness.
4. Let the patients with stroke and hemiplegia keep breathing smoothly, and pat the patient's back when turning over, which is beneficial to their expectoration.
For patients with stroke and hemiplegia in acute attack, infusion therapy is the most commonly used method. Because intravenous infusion drugs can quickly act on the focus and play a vital role in saving patients' lives, patients with cerebral infarction should be sent into the body as soon as possible in an emergency.
3. Nursing care after stroke and hemiplegia
If the patient is in a coma or unable to take other drugs orally, infusion therapy should also be given. After a course of infusion, patients who have passed the acute phase can be treated mainly with oral drugs. It is suggested that patients with stroke and hemiplegia should eat low-fat diet, eat less and eat more meals, try to eat light and digestible food and eat less greasy food. Don't overeat, eat more foods rich in high-quality protein, such as milk, eggs and fish.
Because stroke hemiplegia is mainly caused by the elderly, the digestive function of the elderly is poor, especially for patients who stay in bed for a long time. Eating more digestible food can reduce the complexity of the gastrointestinal tract, avoid the disorder of gastrointestinal function, and be conducive to the absorption of nutrients. Therefore, patients with stroke and hemiplegia should pay attention to medication and eat more soup and porridge in their diet.
Regarding the care of cerebral infarction, stroke and hemiplegia, experts give the following suggestions:
(1) Patients with cerebral infarction should drink more water, especially once in the morning and evening, which can effectively promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and make human metabolism better. Drinking water at night can effectively dilute blood and prevent thrombosis, which is very beneficial to health.
(2) Limit sugar intake. This is also one of the nursing methods for patients with cerebral infarction and stroke hemiplegia. If you eat too much sugary food, it can be easily converted into fat in your body, increasing your weight and blood viscosity. In addition, the drinking of beverages should also be controlled. For example, patients with cerebral thrombosis should pay more attention if they have diabetes.
Cerebral infarction, stroke and hemiplegia should pay more attention to doctor's advice in medication. Now the better drugs on the market, such as Ginkgo biloba leaves, have a better therapeutic effect on this kind of diseases. But not all patients are suitable for taking it. It is best to choose medication according to your own situation under the guidance of a doctor.
