Need to "rest" after a stroke? wrong! Rehabilitation training should be done early
2023-04-25
Stroke, commonly known as "stroke" in folk, is caused by lesions in the cerebral blood vessels. Some people believe that in the event of a stroke, patients should be allowed to rest in bed more and exercise less. Little did they know that this complete rest may affect the functional recovery of hemiplegic limbs in patients, and even lead to muscle atrophy or joint stiffness. Timely rehabilitation treatment can effectively improve patient function. So, how to grasp the timing of rehabilitation for "stroke" and what rehabilitation needs to be carried out? And listen to the doctor's detailed explanation. Rehabilitation treatment can effectively reduce the disability rate of stroke. Stroke mainly includes two categories: cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. With the improvement of people's living standards in China, the incidence rate of the disease is also on the rise. Many patients suffer from stroke, and after treatment, their condition stabilizes. However, they often leave behind some functional impairments, such as unclear speech, repeated coughing during eating and drinking, and difficulty walking. At this point, timely and standardized rehabilitation treatment is particularly necessary. Numerous studies have shown that stroke rehabilitation treatment is the most effective way to reduce disability rates. The purpose of rehabilitation treatment is to alleviate obstacles, improve function, prevent complications, improve patients' ability to take care of themselves, and ultimately strive to live within the family, reduce the burden of care for family members, and even strive to reintegrate into social life if conditions permit. When can mild patients start rehabilitation treatment after stroke within 72 hours? Generally, rehabilitation treatment can begin after the patient's condition stabilizes. What is a stable condition? It refers to the stabilization of vital signs such as body temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate, and the cessation of symptoms and signs. Some mild stroke patients can receive rehabilitation treatment within 72 hours of onset, while most patients can receive it within two weeks. Patients with more severe conditions need to delay the start of rehabilitation treatment. It is recommended to communicate with the attending doctor to determine the specific time for the patient to start rehabilitation treatment. It should be noted that rehabilitation treatment still requires medication treatment. Including secondary prevention drugs after stroke, drugs for relieving spasms and improving cognitive function, and drugs for controlling complications. Random withdrawal of medication may lead to poor control of the condition and even lead to a recurrence of stroke. The selection of rehabilitation projects varies from person to person, including the treatment of functional impairments directly caused by stroke and the treatment of stroke complications. The location of disease occurrence varies among different patients, and the residual dysfunction also varies, so the specific rehabilitation treatment items vary from person to person. Generally speaking, the main functional impairments include motor dysfunction, sensory dysfunction, cognitive dysfunction, emotional disorders, speech and language disorders, swallowing disorders, urinary and fecal excretion disorders, cardiopulmonary dysfunction, etc. Rehabilitation medical staff will conduct a systematic and comprehensive rehabilitation assessment of patients, and carry out targeted rehabilitation treatment based on the evaluation results. Specific rehabilitation measures include placing good limb positions, inducing limb movements, performing sitting and standing balance training, language training, swallowing training, and cognitive training. In addition, Chinese medicine acupuncture and moxibustion and massage treatment also have good effects on rehabilitation after cerebral infarction. In recent years, neuroregulatory techniques have also been widely applied in rehabilitation. In addition, stroke
