What are the exercise methods for sequelae of cerebral infarction

Cerebral infarction is a disease that can seriously endanger people's health. If this disease occurs, the patient will feel that his body has become abnormal, and may even suffer from hemiplegia. This can easily lead to the patient being unable to live a normal life in the future. Therefore, it is very important to treat the sequelae of cerebral infarction. The best way to deal with this situation is to carry out rehabilitation exercises, which may improve the patient's symptoms in the long run.

If there are still limb and language disorders one year after the onset of cerebral infarction, it is considered a sequela of cerebral infarction. The focus of treatment in the sequelae period is to prevent the recurrence of cerebral infarction and improve symptoms. Some patients are able to take medication consistently within one year of onset, but ignore reliable medication after one year; some patients think that as long as they keep exercising and control their diet, it doesn’t matter whether they take medication or not. Relying solely on exercise and diet adjustment is primary prevention, and is a disease prevention measure for people who have not yet suffered cerebral infarction but have risk factors. For patients who have already suffered a cerebral infarction, in order to prevent recurrence and continue to improve symptoms so that the condition continues to develop in a positive direction, in addition to paying attention to a light diet, functional exercise, and controlling blood pressure and blood lipids, the most important thing is to use reliable medications to continuously prevent and treat the causes of cerebral infarction. The five-year recurrence rate of cerebral infarction is over 30%. Once a recurrence occurs, the patient and his family will face a heavier mental and economic burden. Therefore, it is better to prevent it before it occurs than to treat it after it occurs. Cerebral infarction is a chronic disease, and it is more common in the elderly around 60 years old. The focus of medication selection, in addition to the targeted preventive and therapeutic effects on the causes of cerebral infarction such as arteriosclerosis, should also have the advantages of long-term effectiveness, safety, no drug resistance, reasonable dosage form and small dosage. This is the best secondary prevention medication suitable for long-term use by middle-aged and elderly patients with cerebral infarction. The clinical key drugs that can be developed for secondary prevention are the first choice medications for the recovery and sequelae periods of cerebral infarction.

The most fundamental way to prevent bedsores for comatose patients is to turn them over regularly, generally once every 2 to 3 hours. In addition, wet sheets, quilts and clothes should be replaced promptly. Now let me introduce: the method of turning the patient over (taking placing the patient in the left side lying position as an example): the first step is for the family member to stand on the right side of the patient, first make the patient lie flat, and then flex the patient's lower limbs; the second step is for the family member to put the left arm under the patient's waist, the right arm under the patient's thigh, then lift the patient and move him to the right side (family member's side), then put the left hand under the patient's shoulder, the right hand under the waist, lift and move to the right side; the third step is to turn the patient's head, neck, and torso to the left at the same time, that is, the left side lying position; finally, put a pillow on the patient's back and head to support his turning position and make the patient comfortable.

For the treatment of sequelae of cerebral infarction, reliable medication is one aspect, but only comprehensive treatment such as medication, diet adjustment, rehabilitation training, and control of risk factors can achieve the best treatment state and return to a healthy life as soon as possible.
