Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. How long can bedridden patients live?Doctor's answer:
A collapse itself is not a terminal illness, but patients with collapse are prone to multiple systemic complications that can lead to near-death. Therefore, the duration of survival for patients with collapse depends on their specific complications. If the nursing training for collapse patients is well-executed and they do not have significant complications such as obvious pulmonary infections or pressure sores, for a 39-year-old male, the survival time can be relatively long. Clinically, it can be observed that patients with similar conditions may survive for less than 10 or 20 years.
