Cerebrovascular disease causes damage to local brain tissue, and its function is also affected accordingly. However, the human brain has strong reorganization ability and plasticity, which can allow other parts to exercise their original functions instead of the damaged brain tissues in various forms, so bedside rehabilitation training can be conducted early after the cerebrovascular disease is stabilized. Early rehabilitation can promote the establishment of neural collateral circulation or neural axon synaptic connections, functional compensation and functional reorganization of the contralateral cerebral hemisphere. Moreover, early rehabilitation can reduce complications such as pneumonia and pressure sores, improve patients’ confidence in overcoming diseases, and improve patients’ limb functions at the same time. Therefore, early bedside rehabilitation training in acute cerebrovascular disease is important for reducing the degree of neurological deficits, improving self-care ability and motor function, and preventing the occurrence of comorbidities.
