Brain stem infarction is brain stem infarction. After infarction, the lesion will be replaced by glial cells, forming a glial scar, so the lesion will persist and cannot be completely removed, but some patients can achieve functional cure, i.e., there is no clinical manifestation or a relatively small impact on their own function. Therefore, whether brainstem infarction can be cured, which usually refers to whether it can be functionally cured, needs to be considered according to a variety of factors such as infarction site, severity, treatment effect, prognosis and other factors, and the specific conditions of different patients are different, thus it is not possible to make a generalization. If there is a brainstem infarction in the midbrain area, it can cause severe quadriplegia, which cannot be cured. If the infarction is in the cerebral bridge, it will show peripheral paralysis of the facial nerve, numbness of the trigeminal nerve, hearing loss and dizziness, etc. In severe cases, it will also affect the movement of the limbs. Some of these patients can be functionally cured through subsequent rehabilitation exercises and combined with medications such as aspirin and atorvastatin, etc., but most of the patients will have severe paralysis of limbs due to the damage of the conotruncus fasciculus. If the patient’s brainstem infarction occurs in the medulla oblongata, the result will be more serious, and swallowing and breathing difficulties can occur, and also cause respiratory and cardiac arrest, which makes it basically impossible to achieve a cure, and can only sustain life. After brainstem infarction, if the patient has difficulty in swallowing, choking on drinking water, slurred speech and other sequelae, or needs to be inserted into the gastric tube to continue life, at this time, the family should check whether the catheter is in the stomach every day. Diet as much as possible to high calorie, high vitamin, high protein, low salt, low cholesterol fluid-based food. Pay attention to eating and drinking slowly to prevent choking and aspiration.
