What is the optimal time for rescuing patients with cerebral hemorrhage?
Generally speaking, there is no such thing as an optimal rescue time for cerebral hemorrhage. If a patient experiences cerebral hemorrhage, it is recommended to seek immediate medical attention and follow emergency measures under the guidance of a physician. The specific steps are as follows:
1. Upon discovering a person with cerebral hemorrhage, call 120 immediately to ensure the patient receives prompt treatment.
2. If the surrounding environment is safe and spacious, slightly elevate the patient's head 20–30 degrees to prevent aspiration, and observe whether the patient is experiencing seizures.
3. If the patient is having seizures, turn their head gently to one side and clear any oral secretions to keep the airway open.
4. If the weather is hot, apply a cold towel or an ice pack wrapped in a towel to the patient’s forehead to promote vasoconstriction of blood vessels in the head and help alleviate symptoms of cerebral hemorrhage.
If the patient experiences respiratory arrest or loss of consciousness, immediately call for help from bystanders and have a trained individual perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), while continuing to wait for the arrival of emergency medical personnel.
