1. Psychological care

Patients often have emotional reactions such as depression, frustration, irritability, anger, pessimism and disappointment. Therefore, family members should care about and be considerate of patients psychologically, talk to patients more often, comfort and encourage patients, create a good family atmosphere, patiently explain the condition, eliminate patients' doubts and pessimism, make them understand their condition, and build and consolidate their confidence and determination in functional rehabilitation training.

2. Prevent complications

(1) Help the patient turn over and pat his back 4 to 6 times a day, each time for about 10 minutes. If a patient is found to have coughing up yellow sputum, fever, shortness of breath, or bluish lips, you should seek medical attention immediately.

(2) Encourage patients to drink plenty of water to clean the urinary tract. And pay attention to the cleanliness of the perineum to prevent cross infection. If you find cloudy urine or fever, these are signs of a urinary tract infection and should be treated early.

(3) Most paralyzed patients suffer from constipation, and some may suffer from cerebral hemorrhage again due to straining during bowel movements. Therefore, attention should be paid to the dietary structure, and patients should be given more low-fat, high-protein, high-energy foods and vegetables and fruits containing crude fiber, and given enough water. Defecation should be done in the toilet at regular times and places, and laxatives or enemas should be used when necessary.

(4) When the patient is paralyzed in bed, bedsores are more likely to occur on protruding bones such as the occipital protuberance, scapula, hip, sacrum, and heel. Use a soft pillow or sea foam pad to protect bony protrusions, turn over every 2 to 3 hours, avoid dragging, pushing, etc., keep the bed dry and clean, and regularly use warm water baths and massage to enhance local blood circulation and improve local nutritional status.

(5) Perform centripetal massage on your limbs daily for 10-15 minutes each time to promote venous blood return and prevent deep vein thrombosis. Once unexplained fever or swelling and pain in the lower limbs is discovered, prompt diagnosis and treatment should be sought.
