Brainstem hemorrhage is a dangerous period until the hemorrhage is absorbed, and most patients who survive brainstem hemorrhage after regular treatment have a dangerous period lasting 2-4 weeks. The greatest risk is within 2 weeks after the onset of brainstem hemorrhage, because the good time for rebleeding is within 72 hours after the initial hemorrhage, and the good time for cerebral edema is 3-5 days, which can last about 10 days. If cerebral hemorrhage increases during this period, the hematoma will compress the microcirculation, causing ischemia in the surrounding tissues and the formation of cerebral edema, which in turn compresses the brainstem and leads to respiratory failure, which can endanger the patient’s life. The length of recovery time for brainstem hemorrhage is related to the amount of hemorrhage; if the amount of hemorrhage is high, the patient has a higher mortality rate. With moderate hemorrhage, recovery is slower and stabilization of vital signs takes more than 1 week. If there is a small amount of bleeding, the function of the brainstem may improve after 1-2 weeks of active treatment. After brainstem hemorrhage, long time bed rest is needed, and family members need to strengthen care. It is recommended to turn and pat the back every 2 hours to avoid complications such as respiratory tract infection, urinary tract infection and bed sores.
