Early symptoms of ischemic stroke, golden time, and sequelae

I want to share the initial symptoms of a stroke experienced by my 80-year-old mother and the aftereffects she suffered after missing the golden time.

 

Initial symptoms of cerebral infarction

I experienced dizziness, and suddenly I lost strength in my hand, frequently dropping objects, along with sensory disturbances and indigestion, feeling sluggish.

It is pronunciation.

 

 

■ Stroke Golden Time

I thought it would be okay since I was alone in the countryside, so I went to the hospital a few days later, and the diagnosis was stroke.

Received, and the golden time for stroke is the first time after symptom onset.

I needed to receive treatment within 3 to 4.5 hours, but I missed it.

 

 

Stroke residual symptoms

Treatment to prevent complications from platelet inhibitors and anticoagulants, rehabilitation therapy to eliminate sequelae, took a considerable amount of time, but my mother was left with lifelong disability due to hemiplegia, and later progressed to vascular dementia.

 

Early detection and diagnosis of cerebral infarction are essential for proper treatment.

It seems that treatment and rehabilitation are possible.

Ischemic stroke

If detected early, treatment can be easily done, so don't miss the golden time.
