Recovery after Stroke and relapse prevention

TBMMN has become a common disease in the world as well as in Vietnam with the number of people suffering from increasing rapidly. This is a disease with a high mortality risk 3rd, after cancer and heart disease. If lucky survivors, patients TBMMN also faced a lot of sequelae such as lisp, distorted mouth, loss of memory or more severe as hemiplegia, paralysis body, live plants ... However, the door opportunities remain for the patient can recover these sequelae.

Causes of TBMMN

According to a survey by the World Health Organization, TBMMN (aka stroke) is a condition in neurological dysfunction are two main types of cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. In particular, 80% of strokes are caused by cerebral infarction.

Cerebral infarction occurs when a blood vessel is blocked or filled brain. Leading causes of cerebral infarction is caused by atherosclerosis. Plaque can grow up completely clog heart arteries. But more dangerous, the plaque may destabilize, peeling and moving in the blood vessels. This phenomenon also activates the clotting mechanism of the body, forming a blood clot known as thrombosis. Blood thrombosis according to the branch where the arteries or heart blood vessel narrowing will cause complete obstruction. Cerebrovascular causes clogged cerebral infarction, coronary (heart arteries) are blocked will cause a heart attack.

Cerebral infarction, sudden decrease or completely stop the blood supply to the brain. If the stoppage lasts over a minute, the brain cells can die. Depending on the location and extent of brain damage that the activities of agencies that control by the brain are affected, can only be deformed mouth, lisp, dementia or hemiplegia, paralysis full of coal, even death.

Recovery for patients and prevent recurrence TBMMN

According to the Association of Prevention Stroke, in Vietnam each year, about 200,000 new cases TBMMN evidence, including up to 50% mortality. Of the 50% of patients have survived TBMMN to 92% with the motor sequelae, 68% sequelae of mild to moderate, 27% severe sequelae, 92% of patients with hemiplegia who live in families and communities still should exercise rehabilitation.

To recover after TBMMN patients need a combination of therapy: physical therapy, medical treatment (medication) and spiritual encouragement of family and those around them. The exercise physical activity helps patients regaining sensation and mobility, and prevent complications caused by lying motionless as pneumonia, skin ulcers due to spleen weighed, muscle spasms, joint stiffness ...

Use of drug prevention and treatment of thrombosis help dissolve blood clots, ensure reperfusion, which can help restore the sequelae of TBMMN. At the same time this group also helps prevent blood clots should also important in preventing recurrence TBMMN.

Those who had been TBMMN also face high risk of recurrence. Therefore well-controlled blood pressure, blood fat and other risk factors such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, avoid stress, do not drink alcohol, smoking cigarettes, do not eat a lot of fat, sugar, not too salty to eat, eat more fruits and vegetables. Campaign Mode reasonable and adequate prescription drug doctor.
