Five-year recurrence rate of brainstem infarction

At present, there is no exact literature to show what the 5-year recurrence rate of brainstem infarction is. It is suggested that patients with brainstem infarction should actively cooperate with doctors to carry out functional exercises, regular follow-up, and at the same time eat a light diet to reduce the chance of recurrence. Brain stem infarction is mainly caused by vertebral-basilar artery sclerosis, narrowing of arterial lumen, etc. Patients are often accompanied by dizziness, tilting of the corners of the eyes, and even the manifestation of impaired consciousness. The 5-year recurrence rate of brainstem infarction may not be the same due to differences in the size of the brainstem infarction, individual physical condition, and whether the treatment is actively carried out in different populations, and there has not yet been any literature on the data statistics. It is recommended that patients maintain good living habits, avoiding smoking and alcohol abuse, frequent late nights, and emotional ups and downs, while the diet should be light, avoiding too much spicy stimulation, high oil, high fat, and high salt food. It is recommended to actively carry out functional recovery in life and maintain stable emotions. At the same time, to develop the habit of regular follow-up, in order to follow-up treatment.
