Stroke is a group of cerebrovascular diseases caused by organic brain injury, with sudden onset and rapid onset of limited or diffuse brain deficits as common clinical features. Stroke is characterized by a high incidence and disability rate, with limb weakness and paralysis being among the common clinical symptoms. Stroke can be divided into ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke, and its treatment is mainly divided into acute treatment and recovery treatment. The acute treatment of hemiplegia due to ischemic stroke includes general treatment such as controlling blood pressure, blood sugar, preventing infection and maintaining water-electrolyte balance, as well as thrombolytic therapy, antiplatelet aggregation therapy with aspirin or clopidogrel, and cerebral protection therapy with edaravone and olanzapine. The acute treatment of hemiplegia due to hemorrhagic stroke includes medical treatment such as dehydration, cranial pressure lowering therapy, hemostatic therapy, and surgical treatment such as hematoma removal and aneurysm clamping. In the recovery period, the main treatment is lifestyle modification and cerebrovascular disease control and prevention with aspirin and statin drugs according to the condition. In addition, for people with paralysis after stroke, joint movement, walking and weight-bearing training under the guidance of a professional rehabilitator can promote the rehabilitation of the affected limb strength and improve limb function. In summary, hemiplegia is a common clinical symptom of stroke, and its treatment should be based on the patient’s condition and the period of the disease, so that patients should be treated promptly to avoid missing the best treatment time.
