Cost of cerebral infarction treatment

The cost of treatment for cerebral infarction depends on the severity of the patient’s condition, as well as the hospital where he or she is seen. In general, the cost is relatively higher in tertiary hospitals, and generally lower in primary and secondary hospitals. For patients with mild cerebral infarction, it costs about 6,000-7,000 yuan if they are seen in a tertiary hospital, and they usually need to be hospitalized for 2 weeks. The cost may be lower if you visit a first or second level hospital. For patients with severe cerebral infarction, such as large cerebral infarction and brainstem infarction, they are prone to impaired consciousness, cerebral edema, and increased intracranial pressure, which can affect the patient’s vital signs and require monitoring treatment, and the cost of monitoring is about 200-300 yuan per day. At the same time, the applied drugs are also more expensive, for example, butylphthalein and thrombolytic therapy can be applied. Thrombolytic therapy alteplase alone is generally applied for 6,000-7,000 yuan, and butylphthalein treatment requires about 300 yuan per day, plus other costs, which can even reach thousands of dollars per day. For patients with large cerebral infarction, there is often a combination of somatic dysfunction, and rehabilitation is required after the condition is stabilized. Overall, for patients with large cerebral infarcts, the typical cost is$10,000 to$20,000 if they are seen in a tertiary care hospital.
