Can cerebral infarction patients fly?

For patients with cerebral infarction, it is generally not recommended to fly because during take-off and landing, there is often overweight and weightlessness, which often leads to significant fluctuations in blood pressure, thus leading to a transient lack of cerebral blood supply and aggravating the cerebral infarction. In addition, during the flight, the low-pressure environment in the aircraft cabin will lead to corresponding fluctuations in dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood, which can lead to impaired blood and oxygen supply to the brain of the patient. At the same time, prolonged airplane ride with poor limb movement and restricted activity may lead to the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis in the lower extremities, which may lead to pulmonary embolism and other related diseases. At the same time, during the recovery period of cerebral infarction, especially within six months, effective rehabilitation exercises can effectively reduce the occurrence of sequelae and improve the physical and speech dysfunction of patients. Long-term airplane flights may involve interruption of rehabilitation treatment, which may result in unnecessary lack of treatment programs and reduced treatment effects.
