WHAT IS STROKE?

Stroke also known as cerebrovascular accident (CVA) occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is reduced or stopped due to various reasons like rupturing of the blood vessel. When supply of blood is stopped, the brain is deprived of both oxygen and nutrients and this deprivation causes brain damage. This is a medical emergency as brain cells die within minutes.

There are 2 types of strokes. One is Ischemic stroke where clots formed in the blood vessels block the flow of blood to the brain depriving it of oxygen and nutrients. The second type of stroke is Hemorrhagic stroke where the blood vessels ruptures again leading to deprivation of oxygen and nutrients to the brain.

WHY CHOOSE INPATIENT REHABILITATION FOR STROKE RECOVERY?

The way Stroke affects an individual varies from patient to patient although at a generalized level most patients suffer from speech and swallow impairment, mobility impairment, depression. The chances of a person’s recovery brighten very well if the patient is given a good recuperative and rehabilitative care. Both these care needs to go hand in hand and this can best be achieved only in a inhouse residential/inpatient center. Such a center typically has a good robust care protocol with clear outcome based monitoring systems and will be designed in a scientific manner to help patients overcome the after effects of stroke.

WHAT SHOULD YOU BE AWARE OF ?

Awareness is the key. One has to be aware of the following important measures to help prevent any sudden onset of second stroke.

  • Knowledge of the medications and their side effects

  • Having specific set-up at home to meet the needs of the patient

  • 24/7 monitoring of the survivor routine activities

  • Precaution after the stroke and during recovery or rehabilitation

  • Following the dietitians recommended diet plan

  • Providing the right amount of exercises and physiotherapy

  • Regular visits to physician

Post-stroke care is critical for the patients who had recently been attacked. The first three months after the attack is considered to be the golden period for recovery. Survivors who have had one stroke are at high risk of having another one if the treatment programs and plans are not followed systematically, and having this care plan at home is not quite possible.
