How many years can live after cerebral infarction paralysis varies from person to person, some patients can survive for several years or decades, some patients can die within one year after the onset of the disease, and even some patients can die within a few months, or even a few days after the onset of the disease, which mainly depends on the severity of the patient’s condition, and the patient’s onset of the disease age as well as the complications are all related. If the patient is older and has complications, it will usually affect the patient’s life expectancy. Common complications include urinary tract infections, respiratory tract infections and bedsore infections. Paralysis in patients with cerebral infarction is mainly seen in large hemispheric infarction and brainstem infarction. Patients with large hemispheric infarction usually have hemiparesis. Patients with brainstem infarcts have quadriplegia, and in severe cases, they may have bulbar palsy, including choking on water and dysphagia. If the patient has difficulty in swallowing, it is easy to asphyxiate and lead to death by asphyxiation. If the patient has choking on drinking water, it is easy to cause aspiration pneumonia, and in severe cases, the patient should be given a lower gastric tube, retained gastric tube, and nasal feeding diet.
