Home Care After โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง
After การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ, about 60% of โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง patients can take care of themselves in daily life at the end of the first year.Only 5% patients need full help. Therefore, after a โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง patient discharged from the hospital, the family needs to provide adequate understanding and support to help him recover his life functions to the greatest extent.
1.Give more love and patience
The sequelae of โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง can cause great physical and psychological trauma to patients, such as anxiety, anger, and even world-weariness,especially for those who are at the peak of their careers and are relatively young.
Family members should fully understand the โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง patient’s eagerness to return to work and life, tell him the development of the disease, guide him to exercise rationally, adjust his diet and living habits, and give him confidence and expectations for life. These patients have fewer underlying diseases, are relatively young, and have a relatively high social level. Coupled with strong subjective willingness, if they can exercise scientifically and manage their health, the recovery will be relatively good. And the possibility of returning to work or life is very high.
2.Create a healthy family environment
The onset of โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง is often accompanied by risk factors. Therefore, it is necessary to intervene in some long-term bad habits or factors during the การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ process. Creating a family environment that is conducive to physical and mental health, such as a relaxed and happy family atmosphere, promoting low-salt and low-fat nutritious diets, and sports-loving habits, can strengthen the patient’s awareness of การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ, help correct bad habits, and help functional recovery.
3.Enhance family protection awareness
After a โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง, there are many sequelae such as inflexible legs and feet, and it is easy to fall. Therefore, the accumulation of debris should be minimized at home, the ground should be kept dry and non-slip, and guardrails can be installed beside the bed or in the toilet if conditions permit. In addition, โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง patients should wear non-slip shoes instead of slippers. The family should also teach the patient how to get up after a fall, so as to reduce their fear of falling and the injury after a fall.
