Excuse me, how should the elderly with hemiplegia in bed after cerebral infarction take care of their daily life and medical treatment?
1, hemiplegia nursing

Most patients with cerebral infarction are obese, and some of them are complicated with diabetes. Now they have hemiplegia and local neurotrophic disorder. If pressed for a long time, their skin will rupture and form bedsores. Once it happens, it may aggravate cerebrovascular diseases due to infection and fever, and in severe cases, it may also cause sepsis and lead to death. Therefore, family members should pay attention to turn over and pat the patient's back regularly, scrub the skin with warm water, and gently massage the squeezed parts, especially the parts with prominent bones, such as the spine and sacrococcygeal region.

The frequency of turning over is generally about 2 hours. If skin ulceration is found, medical staff should deal with it as soon as possible. Patients with urinary incontinence should change diapers frequently, wash with warm water after each defecation, and apply talcum powder after drying.
