How many years can a patient with cerebral infarction live after nasogastric feeding?

Cerebral infarction is a disease that occurs in the brain. It can damage our IQ and at the same time our limbs. The movements of our limbs are controlled by signals from the brain. Generally, patients with cerebral infarction, those with more serious conditions will require nasogastric feeding, because if they eat orally, there may be a high risk of aspiration or swallowing, and food may enter the lungs. So, how many years can a patient with cerebral infarction live with nasogastric feeding?

The patient's symptoms are quite serious, but if the treatment is timely and the family members can take good care of the patient, the survival period of cerebral infarction patients is still relatively long. The left side of the brain is the dominant hemisphere, so if a large area of ​​cerebral infarction occurs, it usually causes severe language disorders in addition to hemiplegia. What family members need to do is to turn the patient over and tap the back frequently to avoid bedsores and lung infections. They should also let the patient sit up appropriately to train the patient's ability to sit upright and perform passive training on paralyzed limbs frequently. This is the only way to effectively reduce complications and improve the patient's quality of life.

The elderly have high blood pressure and high blood pressure index. Accompanied by myocardial ischemia, left ventricular hypertrophy, and large-area cerebral infarction, the condition is still relatively critical. Because he cannot eat on his own initiative, cannot move due to nasogastric feeding, and is not conscious. Lung and systemic infections are very likely to occur and are difficult to treat. So how long can an elderly person live? It's hard to say because in a case like his, the condition changes very quickly. So now we need to strengthen care to prevent infection.

Patients with large-area cerebral infarction are in greater danger. Due to large-area brain tissue ischemia and hypoxia, many obvious complications will occur, affecting normal functions. In addition, many complications will occur, such as cerebral hemorrhage after cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, severe arrhythmia, emergency gastric ulcer bleeding, and the three major complications caused by long-term bed rest, all of which may endanger life.

If the disease is discovered and treated promptly and actively, there is hope for improvement. The general treatment principles are the same, mainly reducing intracranial pressure, dissolving thromboses, anticoagulation, vasodilation, nourishing cranial nerves, protecting gastric mucosa, and continuous oxygen inhalation. If complications can be avoided, it is generally not life-threatening.
