Cerebral infarction hemiplegia rehabilitation training, these methods can be used

Cerebral infarction is a very common type of disease in clinical practice. Generally speaking, after people suffer from cerebral infarction, if they have hemiplegia, they need rehabilitation training. So, what is the best method for rehabilitation training of hemiplegia caused by cerebral infarction?

1. Functional exercise:

This is an important part of home care for hemiplegic patients, because the patients are bedridden for a long time and cannot move, and their whole body physiological functions are impaired. If the limbs are inactive for a long time, the muscles will gradually atrophy. Decreased heart and lung function affects breathing and blood circulation. Therefore, functional exercise is beneficial to the recovery of the patient and should be done step by step and persistently.

2. Complete hemiplegia stage:

Massage, manipulation and passive movements can be used to help patients exercise their functions. The movements should be from light to heavy and then light again. Do not overexert yourself during passive activities. Each full-body workout lasts about 15-30 minutes.

3. Partial function recovery stage:

In this stage, you should continue the exercises from the previous stage. At the same time, help the patient turn over and sit up. For standing exercises, first stand by holding onto the bed frame or chair back, then stand with your hands free. Simple limb movement exercises, such as extension, abduction, external rotation of the upper limbs, flexion and extension of the elbow joint, flexion and extension of the lower limbs, and flexion and extension of the foot.

4. Basic recovery stage:

On the basis of standing and simple upper limb activities, the baby starts to practice walking, and the fine motor skills of the hands and language functions are restored. Walking exercises start with swinging the body left and right with support, with the legs taking turns to bear the weight, followed by stepping, and gradually transitioning to walking alone with the help of crutches. When the circular gait occurs, the knee flexion and leg lift movements should be practiced. Upper limb exercises can include practicing holding bowls, spoons, chopsticks, dressing and undressing, as well as weaving, using an abacus and other fine activities. People with aphasia need help in recovering their language functions through training.
