A Study on the Effects of Different Positions on the Clinical Prognosis of Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke

Abstract

The key to treating Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) is to rapidly reopen occluded blood vessels, restore blood flow, and rescue the ischemic penumbra. Treatment methods mainly include thrombolysis, endovascular intervention, etc. However, these treatments are limited by strict time windows and technical conditions. Simpler and more feasible methods to improve cerebral blood flow are currently a hot topic in clinical research. In recent years, several studies have shown that changes in body position can effectively improve cerebral blood flow in patients. However, the effect on the neurological functional prognosis of AIS remains inconclusive. This review has examined the effects of changes in body position on the clinical prognosis of AIS, combining relevant guidelines and the latest research. The study has provided evidence of an improvement in the clinical prognosis of AIS.
