Patient's question:
My mother is 53 years old and was admitted to the hospital on June 17th in the morning. The initial symptoms were trembling and a semi-comatose state. The doctor treated her with intravenous fluids until 5:55 PM when she suddenly stopped breathing. After 10 minutes of resuscitation, her heart started beating again, but she was unable to breathe independently and has been in a coma ever since. A preliminary diagnosis from the CT scan indicated brain edema, which is essentially a stroke. I am asking if there are any better methods of treatment. I want to pursue every possible hope, please, I beg all the esteemed doctors. Currently, her general condition: unable to breathe independently, relying on an oxygen machine. Medical history: nasal snuff cancer. Previous diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes: good. Duration of the current illness: 36 hours.Doctor's answer:
After the doctor determines whether it is brain death, treatment will be decided. In addition to timely treatment for pediatric hydrocephalus, patients need to consult experts for advice and maintain communication with doctors. Patients should also pay attention to nursing aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a professional hospital for diagnosis and treatment, so that they can achieve good therapeutic effects.
