Red Net Moment, October 29 (Correspondent Fei Ying, Song Kaiting) Recently, Aunt Li, 58 years old in Changsha, felt dizzy when she went to bed, and walked shakily, like a drunk. The family saw that her state was not right, and offered to go to the hospital for examination. Aunt Li didn't think so: "I'm just too hungry, just eat something." ”
However, after eating breakfast, the dizziness and unstable gait situation have not improved. Aunt Li had to obediently come to the Third Hospital of Changsha City.
When the neurologist who received the examination did a physical examination, she found that when Aunt Li closed her eyes and her hands were stretched forward, the whole person was shaky, and her gait and posture were unstable; combined with the prompt of bilateral frontal lobe lacunar cerebral infarction of the head CT, Aunt Li was diagnosed with stroke, that is, stroke.
Stroke is rapid and can lead to serious consequences such as limb paralysis. The doctor urgently admitted Aunt Li to the hospital, and immediately gave drug treatment such as controlling blood pressure, anti-platelet aggregation, and protecting the brain to improve microcirculation.
In less than a week, Aunt Li's condition stabilized, her head was no longer dizzy, and there was no shaking situation when she walked.
"Fortunately, I came to the hospital in time for examination, but the consequences were really unimaginable." Now, after I am discharged from the hospital, I can go square dancing again! Before being discharged from the hospital, Aunt Li said with a smile.
But the 69-year-old He Jiaoyu was not so lucky. On October 28, He Jiaoyu felt a little dizzy, his speech was not good, and he was a little unstable holding chopsticks in his right hand when eating.
She had always been in good health, thinking that she had been too tired to clean up at home recently, so she didn't care too much and lay down at home for a day of rest. However, the situation did not improve as expected. Today, dizziness, shaky hands are still the same, and even swallowing food is a little difficult. The family took He Jiaoyu to the Third Hospital of Changsha City for treatment. After completing the relevant tests, He Jiaoyu was diagnosed with brainstem infarction.
Brainstem infarction is a blockage of the basal artery, which can cause dizziness, nausea and vomiting, swallowing disorders and even breathing and cardiac arrest, but if thrombolytic therapy is carried out within 4.5 hours after the onset of the disease, the occluded cerebral blood vessels are opened and the blood of the brain tissue is restored, the prognosis of the patient will be greatly improved.
But He Jiaoyu delayed for a day before going to the doctor, and had missed the best treatment time window. The doctor regrettably told Ho that she might be left with dizziness, drinking water, coughing, and dysphagia.
"If only I had come to the hospital as soon as I fell ill yesterday..." He Jiao regretted that he was not in the beginning.
Stroke has the characteristics of "five highs" with high incidence, high disability rate, high mortality, high recurrence rate and high economic burden, and the onset of disease is urgent, the disease progresses rapidly, and the consequences are serious. However, if stroke symptoms can be recognized early, and patients are delivered to a (comprehensive) stroke central hospital with the ability to treat stroke patients within 4.5 hours of the onset of the disease, and receive standardized vascular opening treatment, most of them can be significantly restored, or even fully restored, and a healthy and good quality of life will also be saved.
October 29 is the 16th World Stroke Day, and this year's theme is "Be alert to stroke symptoms and identify and treat them as soon as possible". Ding Ling reminds: Time is the brain! Citizens and friends should remember the "BE FAST Tips", which is simple and effective in identifying the early symptoms of stroke.
