中風徵兆------請記住 S.T.R

中風徵兆------請記住 S.T.R

　　這是我的朋友寄給我的一篇文章，我覺得很有參考價值，故將其轉載如下：

　　

　　有個朋友，在一次烤肉聚會當中絆倒了，摔了一跤，旁邊的朋友建議找醫護人員，但她很確定自己沒事，只是穿了新鞋被磚塊絆了一下。她還有點站立不穩的症狀，朋友們幫她清洗乾淨，又為她盛了一盤食物，她就跟著大家一起享受接下來的時光。

　　她的先生後來打電話通知大家：「她被送到醫院，傍晚六點左右，就過世了」，原因是她在烤肉聚餐的時候中風。如果他們懂得如何辨識中風的徵兆，她現在也許還活著跟我們在一起。

　　只需要花一分鐘的時間讀完這篇文章，腦神經外科醫師說：如果他能在三小時之內接觸到中風患者，他就可以將中風的後果完全扭轉過來。訣竅就是，要如何辨識診斷出中風的問題，並讓病患在三小時之內接受醫治，而這是很難的。

　　辨識中風我們一定要記住 S.T.R 三個步驟，請閱讀並學習，牢記在心！有時候中風的徵兆很難辨識，不幸的是，缺乏警覺就會帶來災難。身邊的人如果辨認不出中風的徵兆，中風患者就會嚴重發生腦部的傷害，而造成嚴重的後果。

　　醫生說，旁人只要問三個簡單的問題，就可以很快辨識是否病人已得中風的疾病：

　　　　S：(smile) 要求患者笑一下

　　　　T：(talk) 要求患者說一句簡單的句子（要有條理，有連貫性）

　　　　　　例如：今天天氣晴朗。

　　　　R ：(raise) 要求患者舉起雙手

注意：

　　另外一項中風的徵兆是：

　　要求患者伸出舌頭，如果舌頭「彎曲」或偏向一邊，那也是中風的徵兆。

　　上面四個動作，患者如果有任何一個動作做不出來，就要立刻打 119 ！！！

　　希望各位能將此訊息告訴你周遭的朋友，讓他們能關心有中風傾向的病人。

STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Steps A friend sent this to me and encouraged me to spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks. STROKE IDENTIFICATION:During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food - while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm, Ingrid passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don't die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead. It only takes a minute to read this...A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough. RECOGNIZING A STROKEThank God for the sense to remember the "3" steps, STR . Read and Learn! Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:S*Ask the individual to SMILE .T *Ask the person to TALK . to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE(Coherently) (i.e. . . It is sunny out today)R*Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS .NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out their tongue! ... if the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke - Also give the individual 2 Aspirins as they will help to thin out there blood... If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call 9-1-1 immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be save.
