It seems difficult for ordinary people to distinguish the difference between these two diseases.
Stroke is actually called a cerebrovascular accident in medicine, which generally refers to cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction. Epilepsy refers to epilepsy, which is a disease of brain dysfunction.
Are the two completely unrelated? 强牺  读牺
Some patients will develop epilepsy secondary to cerebral hemorrhage, and cerebral infarction may also be complicated by epileptic symptoms. Therefore, it has always been difficult in medicine to guarantee that a patient has only one disease.
Does this patient just have a simple epileptic seizure or cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction?
What the medical staff who arrive at the scene as soon as possible should do is to prevent secondary harm to the patient. Whether it is a stroke patient or a patient suffering from epilepsy, there are many fears. The first thing may be that the respiratory tract may be blocked by secretions due to dysfunction of the brain and cause suffocation.
The elderly patient on the concrete floor was twitching like a cramped shrimp all over his body, foaming at the mouth, his eyes hung up, and the corners of his mouth were crooked. At this time Zhang Si
Squatting next to the patient, Xie Wanying took out the handkerchief from the bag, twisted it into a ball, and stuffed it into the patient's mouth to prevent the patient from biting her tongue. At the same time, she wiped away the patient's secretions to avoid aspiration.
Then he took out a flashlight and looked at the patient's two pupils. He saw that the pupils were not unequal in size.
Someone nearby called 120.
Xie Wanying stayed by the patient's side until the ambulance arrived. At the same time, she asked the people around her about the patient's situation at the time of the incident: "Did he have a car accident?"
"Huh?" The people at the scene seemed to have not seen how the uncle got sick, and they shook their heads to express their ignorance.
Immediately after hearing the news, a middle-aged woman rushed to the scene of the incident, pushed away the crowd, knelt down next to the patient and shouted: "Dad, Dad¡ª¡ª" Then she raised her head and asked the others excitedly: "What's going on?"
¡°Did your dad have any illnesses before?¡± Xie Wanying asked the family member opposite.
"No." The middle-aged woman denied on the spot, "My dad has always been in good health and nothing happened. He walked out alone and said he was shopping. Do you know what happened to my dad?"
Xie Wanying couldn¡¯t say. She only knew that she might need to call the police and ask the police to come to the scene to check whether there were any signs of a car accident.
Alarm, alarm.
Xie Wanying continued to examine other parts of the patient's body at the scene. Suddenly she saw blood flowing out from under the patient's left thigh. Her brows instantly furrowed: Trouble.
"Doctor, another doctor is here."
The crowd of onlookers moved out of the way again.
A young man in a checkered shirt was carrying a bag and squeezed through the crowd. When he saw someone who seemed to be a colleague giving first aid at the scene, he asked: "What's going on?"
"It may be a car accident, hemorrhage in the midbrain, and an unknown sharp object was inserted under the thigh. Pull out the foreign object quickly. If the aorta is injured in this place, the injured person's life will be in danger." Xie Wanying said.
The other party was stunned after hearing her smooth and smooth judgment. Then he saw that the patient was twitching non-stop and understood what she meant. Zhi Da Zhi Xiao
Generally speaking, thigh injuries can be immobilized and sent to the hospital for treatment. However, the limbs of the injured person at the scene were constantly twitching. Maybe the foreign object that had penetrated the body before being sent to the hospital moved around in the injured person's body and ruptured the aorta, which would have killed the injured person. Moreover, patients with epilepsy cannot be fixed by force, as it will directly crush the patient into fractures.
