The authors, with over a decade of clinical experience in treating stroke patients with hemiplegia, systematically demonstrate in detailed and vivid illustrations how patients should correctly lie down, turn over, sit, stand, walk, climb stairs, and descend stairs. They also illustrate how to transition from lying to sitting, from sitting to standing, and how to perform correct functional exercises, self-massage, and traditional Chinese massage in various positions. Accompanying these illustrations are concise and clear explanations of the key points, significance, and effectiveness, making it easy for readers to understand at a glance. At the end of the book, some questions closely related to stroke patient rehabilitation are introduced to readers in a Q&A format, ensuring that patients can undergo treatment with peace of mind, actively exercise, maintain confidence in their lives, and promote early recovery, thereby improving their quality of life. Therefore, the book is characterized by being concise, vivid, easy to learn, practical, and effective. It is not only suitable for a broad range of medical (nursing) professionals but also meets the clinical needs of specialists in the field. Moreover, it holds certain guiding significance for stroke patients with hemiplegia and their families.
