How to treat cerebral infarction
Cerebral infarction (lacunar cerebral infarction) is a common cerebrovascular disease, usually caused by arterioles occlusion, accounting for 20%-30% of ischemic cerebrovascular disease. In recent years, with the acceleration of life pace and the intensification of population aging, the incidence of cerebral infarction has increased year by year. This article will combine the hot content of the entire network for the past 10 days to provide you with structured data and analysis from the aspects of causes, symptoms, treatment and prevention.
1. Causes and symptoms of cerebral infarction
The main causes of cerebral infarction include hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smoking, etc. The symptoms are usually mild, but may affect the patient's quality of life. The following are the symptoms of cerebral infarction that have been hotly discussed across the Internet in the past 10 days:
symptom | Frequency of occurrence (%) |
---|---|
Mild limb weakness | 45.6 |
Unclear speech | 32.1 |
Dizziness | 28.7 |
Memory loss | 25.3 |
Unstable gait | 18.9 |
2. Treatment methods for cerebral cavity infarction
The treatment of cerebral infarction requires a personalized plan based on the patient's specific situation. The following are the most discussed treatment methods on the Internet in the past 10 days:
Treatment method | Applicable | Validity (%) |
---|---|---|
Antiplatelet therapy | Prevent recurrence | 78.5 |
Antihypertensive therapy | Patients with hypertension | 85.2 |
Lipid-lowering treatment | Patients with hyperlipidemia | 72.3 |
Rehabilitation training | Limb dysfunction | 68.9 |
Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment | Adjuvant therapy | 61.4 |
3. Detailed explanation of drug treatment
1.Antiplatelet drugs: Aspirin and clopidogrel are commonly used antiplatelet drugs that can effectively prevent thrombosis. Recent studies have shown that combination medications may be more suitable for high-risk patients.
2.Antihypertensive drugs: ACEI and ARB drugs can not only lower blood pressure, but also protect the vascular endothelial function, and are the first choice for patients with cerebral infarction and hypertension.
3.Lipid-lowering drugs: Statins can not only lower cholesterol, but also stabilize plaques and improve vascular endothelial function. The latest guide recommends controlling LDL-C below 1.8mmol/L.
IV. Non-drug treatment methods
1.Rehabilitation treatment: Including physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. Recent hot topics have shown that early rehabilitation intervention can significantly improve patient prognosis.
2.Lifestyle intervention: Low-salt and low-fat diet, quitting smoking and restricting alcohol, regular exercise, etc. Online data shows that adhering to a healthy lifestyle can reduce the risk of recurrence by 40%.
3.Psychological intervention: Patients with cerebral infarction often have anxiety and depression, and psychological counseling and drug treatment can improve their quality of life.
5. Latest research progress
1.Stem cell therapy: Recent animal experiments have shown that mesenchymal stem cells may improve cerebral ischemia injury by promoting angiogenesis.
2.Remote rehabilitation: The remote rehabilitation model that emerged during the epidemic has guided patients at home training through smart devices, and the effect has been affirmed.
3.Precision medical treatment: Gene testing has guided individualized medication use has become a new trend, such as CYP2C19 gene testing has guided antiplatelet drug selection.
VI. Preventive measures
Preventive measures | Difficulty of implementation | Performance rating |
---|---|---|
Control blood pressure | medium | ★★★★★ |
Healthy Eating | easy | ★★★★ |
Regular movement | medium | ★★★★ |
Smoking cessation and alcohol restriction | difficulty | ★★★ |
Regular physical examinations | easy | ★★★★ |
7. Patient FAQs
1.Will cerebral infarction recur?Data shows that the recurrence rate within 5 years is about 15%-30%, and standardized treatment can reduce the risk.
2.Do you need to take medicine for a long time?Most patients need to take antiplatelet and lipid-lowering drugs for a long time and follow the doctor's instructions for details.
3.Can you recover completely?About 70% of patients have complete function recovery, but may leave behind minor cognitive impairments.
Conclusion:The treatment of cerebral infarction requires comprehensive measures, including standardized drug treatment, and a healthy lifestyle. Recent hot topics show that the public's attention to brain health has increased significantly, but prevention and treatment knowledge still needs to be popularized. It is recommended that high-risk people undergo regular physical examinations and seek medical treatment in time to obtain the best treatment effect.
