How many years can I live with a cerebral infarction?
Non-professional answer, just for reference.
My family was forty years old got cerebral infarction, standing suddenly fell, half-body paralysis, mouth can not speak kind. Luckily, my colleague was smart enough to realize that something was wrong and hold him up, and he was sent to the doctor in time. 25 years ago, in a small county, this kind of medical technology, together with careful care, he recovered completely without any after-effects, and he has been insisting on taking the medication, and hanging up the bottle once a year. Recently another attack, because of private stop a period of medicine, coupled with the cold weather, the doctor deduced that the onset of four or five o'clock in the morning, the family two or three hours after the discovery, dial 120, take the green channel, or half-body paralysis, the mouth can not speak the state of the doctor's prognosis of the best result is to walk on crutches, one month later, there is no any after limb language sequelae, the neighbors can not see at all have had cerebral infarcts.
I hope you have confidence, cerebral infarction is not so terrible, usually pay attention to physical examination, the onset of the disease sent to the doctor in a timely manner, the earlier the better the effect, follow the doctor's instructions and active rehabilitation therapy, the shallower the day the better the effect. After the healing of appropriate exercise, pay attention to changes in heat and cold, drink more water, control diet, adhere to the medication, regular physical examination to prevent recurrence.
Paying attention to a healthy diet, proper exercise, and regular medical checkups to prevent problems before they occur is the best policy.
Cerebral infarction, short for cerebral infarction.Most of the illnesses leave varying degrees of after-effects. The severity of the disease varies. The number of years of life is related to a number of factors. Some common factors are discussed below.

1.Size and location of the onset vessel.Cerebral infarction is categorized by etiology into atherosclerotic type, cardiogenic embolism, small artery occlusion, other etiologies and unknown etiologies. The highest incidence is atherosclerotic cerebral thrombosis. The prognosis of the large artery atherosclerosis type is more severe. The small vessel occlusion type has a favorable prognosis. The other three types vary in severity depending on the size of the blood vessel blockage. The arterial blood supply system of the brain is divided into the internal carotid artery system and the vertebral basilar artery system. Infarction of the basilar artery and bilateral vertebral arteries is a serious life-threatening infarction. Complete occlusion of the main trunk of the internal carotid artery, the main trunk of the middle cerebral artery, and the cortical branches of the middle cerebral artery results in massive cerebral infarction, which is a serious condition. Combined with impaired consciousness, the mortality rate is high. Those who are conscious have a high survival rate, but the sequelae are more serious. In contrast, infarction of the branches of the large vessels mentioned above is relatively mild. In the case of other similar causes, large vessel infarction is relatively serious and the survival time is short.

2.Preventive treatment and rehabilitation exercises after the disease.After acute treatment of cerebral infarction, the treatment of secondary prevention is entered. Secondary prevention requires adherence to antiplatelet aggregation drugs, lipid-lowering drugs and cause-control drugs and rehabilitation exercises. The common causes of cerebral infarction are atherosclerosis and hypertension. Adherence to antiplatelet drugs, lipid-lowering drugs and drugs for controlling the cause of hypertension can stabilize the blood concentration in the body and prevent the aggravation of atherosclerosis, platelet aggregation and blood viscosity. Rehabilitation exercise can strengthen muscle strength and joint flexibility. Adherence to medication and rehabilitation exercises can gradually improve the quality of life, gradually close to normal people and return to the family and society. Some people don't insist on taking medication and think it's troublesome to take medication. They are worried about the side effects of long-term medication, which may harm the liver and kidneys. Rehabilitation and exercise are too tiring to be consistent. They do not insist on taking medication and exercising. The recurrence rate of infarction is high. The quality of life gradually decreases. Cannot return to society. Ultimately bedridden. Complications and death. Therefore, adherence to medication and rehabilitation exercises gradually improves the quality of life and the survival time is long.

3.Controlling the cause of the disease and improving lifestyle.The common causes of cerebral infarction are atherosclerosis and hypertension. Other causes include hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, carotid stenosis, hyperhomocysteinemia, smoking, alcoholism, obesity, atrial fibrillation, and coronary artery disease. While actively taking medication to control the cause of the disease, one should gradually improve the poor lifestyle. Adopt a healthy lifestyle:1) Reasonable diet. Low salt, low fat, low sugar diet. Eat more vegetables and fruits. That can control high blood pressure, high blood fat, high blood sugar. It can also control obesity, carotid artery stenosis and hyperhomocysteinemia.2) Moderate exercise. Can promote blood circulation. Delay atherosclerosis. Control three high and obesity. 3) Quit smoking and limit alcohol. Can reduce and delay atherosclerosis. Reduce the recurrence rate. 4) Balance of mind can avoid the rise of blood pressure and blood sugar, and delay atherosclerosis. 5) Regular life and enough sleep. Make people energetic. It can reduce the aggravation of hypertension and atherosclerosis and the recurrence of cerebral infarction. Controlling the causes of cerebral infarction and healthy lifestyle can survive for a long time. On the contrary, cerebral infarction is easy to recur. Survival time is short.

To summarize, how many years or how long one can live after cerebral infarction is related to the blood vessel of cerebral infarction lesion. The secondary preventive treatment and rehabilitation exercise after the onset of the disease, as well as the control of the cause of the disease and a healthy lifestyle and other factors. Therefore, after the occurrence of cerebral infarction, it is necessary to adhere to the secondary preventive treatment, prevent recurrence, adhere to exercise and develop a healthy lifestyle. Gradually return to normal and return to family and society as soon as possible. There are also many people who survive to normal age.
My answer, hopefully, will be helpful and enlightening to patients and families with cerebral infarction. I hope you will follow me. I would like to continue to discuss and share with you on some medical issues.
How many years can I live in the later stages of my life if I have had a cerebral infarction? This is the most important question that almost all patients with cerebral infarction as well as their families want to know. So, how to look at this question scientifically? Today, Dr. Zhang said this question from his personal clinical experience.
First of all, people who have had a cerebral infarction usually also have some underlying disease, for example, the vast majority of people with cerebral infarction have high blood pressure, and many others have atrial fibrillation, and some others have a deficiency of folic acid, and so on. The presence of these underlying diseases causes many people to develop cerebral infarction. Although they are all cerebral infarction, there are different degrees of severity of the disease and the severity of the underlying risk factors, so that the final life expectancy is not the same. Let's take a few examples.

I once had an old patient who was a university professor, because he didn't pay attention to his health when he was young and didn't manage his elevated blood pressure for a long period of time, which led to the occurrence of a cerebral infarction of small foci when he was in his forties. After his cerebral infarction, because of his high level of education, he began to gradually learn more about hypertension and cerebral infarction, and then he managed his blood pressure and other risk factors well, and now he has had a cerebral infarction for 16 years, and he has been working without having another cerebral infarction or other malignant events. This patient's cerebral infarction did not have a great impact on him, mainly because his condition was mild, and at the same time, he began to pay attention to the management of risk factors at a later stage, which made him not suffer from the great harm of cerebral infarction, and of course, did not seriously affect his life expectancy.

For many other patients with cerebral infarction, especially those with severe cerebral infarction, many of them have more serious sequelae after cerebral infarction, and at the same time, there are more risk factors, which ultimately affect the life expectancy seriously. After all, cerebral infarction is one of the serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, coupled with the fact that many people do not pay attention to the management of risk factors in the later stages of the disease, many people die after cerebral infarction for a period of time due to various reasons. This is an important reason why many people fear cerebral infarction as a disease.

Having said that, in fact, many friends have heard and understood that, in fact, after the occurrence of cerebral infarction, in the end, whether it will affect the life expectancy, there is no definitive conclusion, but also depends on the nature of the specific patient and the different circumstances, but also varies from person to person. However, for patients who have had a cerebral infarction, Dr. Zhang suggests that while treating cerebral infarction properly, you must also manage your risk factors, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, etc., because only in this way can you try to prolong your life. Is that right?

How many years can I live with cerebral infarction? It's hard to have an accurate answer when different people have different physical constitutions, plus different parts of the brain infarction and different onset conditions. It really varies from person to person!
My old father had a cerebral infarction in 2002, see him out of place and rushed him to the hospital, after CT and MRI doctors told the family that the patient is a cerebral infarction, and rushed to give him thrombolytic injection, the doctor said that this disease from the onset of six hours to hit the thrombolytic injection treatment is the best, I remember that my old father played the injection to the seventeenth day only to recognize the person, before even my mother did not recognize, and also Speaking nonsense, talking about people who have passed away in the past colleagues, can be scary. A course of treatment is fourteen days, a total of two courses of treatment in the hospital, and then go home to recover, the doctor said that within six months is the recovery period, to take good care of, six months after the recovery into what is what.
This disease timely detection of timely medical treatment, can not be delayed, in the effective time to play on the thrombolytic needle treatment effect, I also have to have strong perseverance, good mentality, miss the best treatment time is not good to recover, my father was 75 years old with a cerebral infarction, lived to the age of 92, during which the offense a number of times, are sent to the timely treatment in a timely manner, coupled with his personal tenacity of life.
On the contrary, I have a cousin, he is more than sixty years old, there is a period of time to feel physically and mentally tired, and there is a feeling of hand numbness in the left hand, he did not take it seriously, thinking that it is tired and did not have a good rest, his family advised him to go to the hospital to see, he dragged not to go, and then the condition was serious and had to go to the hospital, missed the optimal time for treatment, infarctions compress the limbs, resulting in hemiplegia, although the treatment for a period of time, but walking is a drag, the hand is still not When the family is not dexterous, fell sick.
As for the cerebral infarction can live a few years, really dare not say, but found that the condition of timely medical treatment is right, at least can not fall into the problem of personal life can take care of themselves, in their own family are good.
Because of the pathology and different, because of the patient's disease and the argument, some people are not serious pathology, not up to a few years after the death of the degree, for example, our neighborhood eighty, ninety ...... and even one hundred another eight years of age of the old people have had a cerebral infarction of forty, fifty years as usual, healthy and alive, and some of the forty-fifty years of age instead of the death of the, so the cerebral infarction is not due to the year Therefore, cerebral infarction is not different from year to year or from person to person, but is determined by pathology (degree of morbidity).
Suffering from cerebral infarction can live a few years, this is not necessarily, my unit has a colleague wife cerebral infarction for thirty years is still alive, this year there are more than 90 years old, thirty years in the husband in the care of pushing a wheelchair around, five years ago, the husband smoked for decades, suffered from lung cancer and died, the wife has a child to take care of, so raise the question of how many years can live is impossible to know.
This problem・_・? , varies from person to person, mainly caused by high blood pressure, I am 20112 years of hypertension, has not been listening to the words of the doctor, take medication on time, in December 29, 2016 disease (Nanchang), I have a little bit of common sense of this disease, the morning feel uncomfortable 😣, there are symptoms of colds and flu, the eyes to see something heavy shadow, to the afternoon, uncomfortable and powerful, it gave the local friends call, let him to the hotel, send me to the hospital, I and my friends said, to the big hospital to see it, chose the Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital, went to the hospital and hung up the emergency number, the doctor to understand the situation, measured the blood pressure, said the blood pressure is too high, let go to do a ct photo, it is estimated to be cerebral infarcts, the film an hour out, the doctor took a look at the buy on the contact with the Department of Neurology, came over to transfer me to the ward, the doctor began to do thrombolytic treatment, the doctor carefully, and the doctor said that I was not able to do the treatment, the doctor said that I was not able to do the treatment. Started to do thrombolytic treatment, the doctor carefully checked once, then very serious, asked me, there is a U.S. production of drugs (thrombolytic), is a clinical trial, some people used, the effect is good, need to self-funding, a more than four hundred, two a day, I said that can be used to start the treatment, the next day, the situation is obviously better, I asked the doctor, the situation, can not go home (Taiyuan) to the hospital for treatment, the doctor said that only 50% of the certainty of a brain infarction. The doctor said, only 50% sure, can not take the train, only by plane, the third day (31st), I let Taiyuan City, a friend of the family, and the hospital contact, noon from Nanchang City to take the plane ✈️, 2:00 p.m. to Taiyuan, from the airport directly to the Neurology Department of the Second Hospital of Shanda, the hospital's friends, the People's Hospital of Jiangxi Province, a look at the medical records, the same treatment program, immediately began to infuse, the treatment to the January 11, 2017 discharged, discharged, three months review, half a year review, a year of hospitalization, now four years, there is no obvious sequelae, only I myself know that there is a problem, and other people say, we do not believe that I am a cerebral infarction patients. With the disease, we must listen to the doctor, take medication on time, regular checkups, proper exercise, quit smoking and drinking, do not go to nonsense, maintain a good mental outlook, in order to give the family, bring happiness!
Nowadays, cerebral stroke, as a common cerebrovascular disease, tops the list of causes of death in China. The most common cause of stroke is cerebral infarction. It can be said that cerebral infarction is definitely the number one "killer" that jeopardizes the health of the elderly.

How many years can I live with a cerebral infarction?
Maybe we have seen hemiplegic people in our lives, if serious, no way to take care of themselves, if mild, can walk, but obviously half of the limbs are abnormal, this is in fact the sequelae of stroke patients. For these patients, it is already lucky to survive, as for the length of life, but also depends on the severity of the disease, whether the rescue is timely and the patient's personal constitution.
- On the one hand, if the onset of cerebral infarction, infarction area is large, brain tissue damage is serious, then the patient is likely to have serious sequelae, the risk of death will be very high, even if survived, life expectancy is also worrying, on the contrary, if the patient's onset of disease is mild, rescue treatment in time, the degree of recovery is good, then the survival time will be longer.
- On the other hand, if the patients themselves are old, fail to undergo timely treatment, and also fail to receive formal rehabilitation exercises after discharge from the hospital, the degree of recovery is poor, and the life expectancy will be shortened accordingly, on the contrary, if the patients themselves are in good physical condition, the treatment is timely, the rehabilitation exercises are effective, and the recovery is good, then they can also live as well as the healthy people.

Take a look at one set of data!
According to the available clinical data, the mortality rate of cerebral infarction is still very high, with a 50% mortality rate for 3-10 years, which means that half of the patients do not live more than 10 years, but this is not absolute. It has been proved that there are many patients who live long after a cerebral infarction. Current research statistics show that the 5-year survival rate after stroke is 62%, the 6-10 year survival rate is 20%, the 11-15 year survival rate is 15%, and the 15-20 year survival rate is 3%. In particular, the average life expectancy of post-stroke patients is 66 years.
These data show that it is uncertain how long a patient with a cerebral infarction can live, and that even though there is a possibility of a reduced life expectancy, it is not absolute. If patients want to live longer, they must be physically active and take precautions.
- On the one hand, the reason why cerebral infarction reduces life expectancy is because of the sequelae. Especially some serious patients, long-term bedridden combined with infections and other complications, and eventually die. Therefore, if you want to live a long life, you need to do a good job of rehabilitation, the acute period with the doctor as early as possible to start rehabilitation exercises to prevent muscle atrophy, reduce brain tissue damage, rehabilitation period, pay attention to strengthen the exercise, good care, prevention of complications, to achieve self-care.
- On the other hand, the most feared thing about brain infarction is recurrence, and every recurrence may kill the patient. Therefore, for patients after cerebral infarction, it is necessary to take preventive measures. It is required to adhere to the regular use of medication, strictly follow the doctor's instructions, and take the medication that should be taken, and review the medication that should be reviewed. In terms of life, in addition to good rehabilitation exercises, diet, work and rest, smoking and alcohol and emotional management, etc., these are also must pay special attention to.

How long a patient with cerebral infarction can live depends on the patient's specific condition.
1, if the patient has a cerebral infarction is a lacunar infarction, the condition is mild, basically has no effect on the life expectancy of a person.

2. If the patient's condition is a little more serious, but can do usual attention to avoid the occurrence of risk factors and recurrence of the disease, the patient's life expectancy is basically rarely affected.
3、So how long a person can live with cerebral infarction lies in whether the patient can actively prevent the occurrence of cerebral infarction after getting cerebral infarction, and whether he can actively participate in and adhere to the diet, medication and exercise.

4. Some patients continue to smoke and drink heavily even after they have a cerebral infarction, which aggravates their condition, and they cannot continue to take antihypertensive, hypoglycemic and lipid-lowering drugs, which will aggravate the development of his condition and shorten his life expectancy.
5, in addition, but also with the patient's personal will, if he can't insist on participating in social life, can't actively participate in exercise, will also affect his life expectancy. Because if the patient does not exercise, it will cause the corresponding recurrence, or other cardiovascular diseases and a series of problems.
I'm Dr. Cao from Octopus Health Care, and I welcome your likes and retweets. You can also leave a message or private message me to discuss if you have questions about brain infarction rehabilitation!
How many years can I live with a cerebral infarction? There is no set answer to this.
Some people do not pay attention to control blood pressure, do not control diet, every day, as usual, big fish and meat, eat and drink; do not change their lifestyle, addicted to tobacco, alcohol, pickles, fried food, etc., may soon be once again cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage. Or paralyzed in bed, no good care, long-term bedsores and secondary serious infections, such people will die quickly.
One of my neighbor's father suffered from cerebral infarction 5 years ago, he asked me to go for acupuncture, and after two treatments, he basically recovered and could take care of himself. But he couldn't change his habit of smoking and drinking, and his blood pressure was never under control. The year before last, he suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, and died at the age of 62 after spending ten days in the Icu.
Some people, even if they are bedridden with a cerebral infarction, can live a long time as long as they are well cared for, follow their doctor's orders, keep their blood pressure under control, don't have a second brain accident, and don't develop bedsores. They can also live a long life if they seek timely medical attention for related symptoms.
The elder sister of one of my old leaders was paralyzed in bed in her 70s and completely lost the ability to take care of herself, relying on nannies and caregivers to take care of her 24 hours a day. Although nannies and so on have been replaced one after another, people have money, and when the old ones go, new ones come. You can also have a doctor come to your home on a regular basis, order a diet program, and prevent and treat emerging diseases in a timely manner. 102 years old this year and not yet demented. Bedridden for nearly thirty years, such people are living without any quality of life.
