Urumqi, April 7 news (reporter Luo Cheng, intern Wang Xue, correspondent Li Xiaoling) "Master, do it with me, straighten your arms..." Recently, in the ward of the Encephalopathy Center, 52-year-old lao Ma followed the demonstration of deputy chief physician Ma Daliang, straightened his arms forward, and flipped his hands up and down.
"Yes! Very good! Come, lift your legs again..." The old horse followed the instructions again.
"Nice! The situation has improved significantly..." Ma Daliang said, "The later rehabilitation exercises must also keep up."
"It's great that he can move his arms and legs and speak!" The old horse's wife was overjoyed.

The old horse was taken to the hospital by 120 ambulance and carried into the emergency department. That day he went to the night shift, got off the bus to cross the road, suddenly felt a little dizzy, the left side of the body is weak, the legs are weak, he gritted his teeth and dragged his legs to the side of the road, and he fell down. This scene was just seen by colleagues, and quickly dialed "120".
"I was already lying in the ambulance when I regained consciousness," said the old horse, "and I wanted to roll over and sit up, but my left arm and left leg didn't seem to move."
"Around 8 p.m., the patient was admitted to the hospital with slurred speech and weakness in his left limb." Wang Fan, a doctor at the Encephalopathy Center, went to the emergency department for consultation and arranged for the patient to do a head CT, considering acute cerebral infarction.
According to international standards, acute cerebral infarction must be thrombolytic as soon as possible within 4.5 hours of onset, and at this time, more than an hour has passed since the onset of the old horse, and it is imminent to open the blood vessels!
The stroke center of the hospital immediately opened a green channel, and a team composed of multidisciplinary collaborations such as the encephalopathy center, the emergency department, the intensive care medicine department, the radiology department, the ultrasound department, and the intervention center jointly carried out treatment.

"We immediately performed intravenous thrombolytic therapy for patients in the CT room," Ma said. CTA examination reveals occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery in patients, which can have irreversible consequences if left untreated.
At the intervention center late at night, Ma Daliang, Jia Qi and other doctors performed a right-sided middle cerebral artery embolization for the old horse, and successfully opened the blood vessel in only half an hour. At present, the old horse has recovered and been discharged from the hospital.
Zhao Boxi said that in order to further improve the successful treatment rate of patients with acute stroke, the stroke center of the Third People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region opened a green channel and gave rapid thrombolytic treatment.
