Mr. Wu, 60 years old, has been in good health except for a little hypertension. He got up early as usual two days ago, ready to have breakfast and go out for a walk, but he didn’t expect to go out, about 6: 30. Suddenly, the whole person’s left limbs, including arms and legs, lost their strength, were out of control, and began to walk erratically, so he rushed to the hospital for consultation.
The attending doctor of neurology department made a physical examination for Mr. Wu and found that his left limb muscle strength was grade 3. Combined with clinical symptoms and medical history, it was preliminarily judged to be acute cerebral infarction.

How to identify stroke?
Remember "120 recipes for stroke"
1. In case of signs of stroke, you should dial 120 quickly and send it to the nearest green channel hospital, bearing in mind that "time is life".
Briefly describe the patient’s situation and illness, accurately describe the location, and let the emergency doctor prepare for the rescue and arrive at the emergency site as soon as possible.
2, be sure to keep breathing unobstructed. If there is vomiting, lie on your side and tilt your head to one side, unbutton the patient’s coat, and remove foreign bodies in your mouth, such as dentures and vomit. If the patient snores like thunder, it means that there is poor breathing. Lie on your side or put your neck up and your head back.
3. Don’t take medicine by yourself. Stroke can be divided into hemorrhagic and ischemic types. The treatment methods are different. If you take medicine at will when you are not diagnosed, it may aggravate your condition.
4. Don’t sit up straight, and don’t hug, drag, carry or carry the patient.
In the process of patient transfer, it is best for family members to respect the advice of emergency doctors and avoid choosing to transfer by car or taxi.
