Generally speaking, patients with cerebral thrombosis can live for a long time. Some people say that if you have cerebrovascular disease, you will not live long, at least not long. There is some truth in this statement, because the mortality rate of cerebrovascular disease is high so far, and almost half of the survivors die within 3~5 years after onset, but they are not absolutely convinced that they will not live long after suffering from cerebrovascular disease. Because there are many people who can live for 20 years after the occurrence of cerebrovascular disease, people who live to 70 years old or over 80 years old can often see it. According to the observation results of some people in China, 62% of them survived for 5 years, 20% for 6~ 10 years,15 years,15 years and 3% for more than 20 years after cerebrovascular disease. It is worth noting that about 20% people can survive for more than 10 years after cerebrovascular diseases. The average life expectancy of cerebrovascular patients in this group is 66 years, of which 40% is over 70 years old and 5% is over 80 years old. 1 case lives to 88 years old. A 63-year-old female patient suffers from cerebrovascular disease, and her left limb is partially paralyzed, but she can move indoors and deal with some trivial matters. Because of long-term treatment and functional exercise, she has lived for 24 years since she became ill, and now she is 87 years old. A 70-year-old male senior engineer suffered from cerebral thrombosis and left limb paralysis. After treatment, he can walk with crutches, and his thinking and intelligence are not greatly affected. Four years later, he can still instruct graduate students and publish translated papers. He has been able to do some work for more than six years and is in good health. Why can only one fifth of patients live 10 years after cerebrovascular disease? It depends on the nature and severity of the patient's cerebrovascular disease. For example, the amount of bleeding is large, the range of cerebral infarction is large, the nervous system damage and hemiplegia are serious, and the patient's survival time is short; If the treatment effect is good and the recovery degree is good within three months to six months after the occurrence of cerebrovascular disease, the sequelae will be significantly reduced. Can prolong the life of patients; Patients with severe hemiplegia who stay in bed for a long time are prone to premature death due to infection or other complications, while patients with mild hemiplegia can live for 10 years or even longer if they can actively treat and pay attention to functional exercise.

To prolong the life span of patients with cerebrovascular disease, the specific measures are as follows: ① After the acute stage of cerebrovascular disease (that is, the initial stage), it is the most important period for treatment and functional recovery, because the early stage is the most beneficial to the repair of cerebrovascular and brain tissues. ② Strengthening nursing and functional exercise, the less complications, the better functional recovery. ③ Preventing the recurrence or recurrence of cerebrovascular diseases. Cerebrovascular disease can recur, and the probability is the highest within one year. Don't think that restoring function is enough. If we ignore the control of hypertension, the treatment of heart disease, the prevention of arteriosclerosis and other inducing factors, the recurrence of cerebrovascular epilepsy is very likely, and the mortality rate of the second attack is higher than that of the first attack, which is worthy of vigilance. If the above points can be achieved, patients with cerebrovascular diseases can live for several years or even longer.
