At Manipal Hospitals, stroke care is delivered with precision and urgency under the supervision of the best doctors for stroke. Patients arrive at the hospital and receive immediate stabilisation in the emergency care unit. They are evaluated, and diagnostic imaging tests are advised to determine the type and severity of the stroke.
Eligible ischaemic patients receive clot-busting drugs to dissolve the blockage and restore blood flow. In acute cases, a mechanical thrombectomy may be performed to remove large clots. In haemorrhagic stroke, the focus is on stabilisation, controlling blood pressure, reversal of anticoagulation, and, if necessary, neurosurgical intervention.
Once clinically stable, patients begin a comprehensive rehabilitation programme led by a multidisciplinary team. Rehabilitation focuses on restoring communication skills, improving balance, and helping patients relearn essential daily tasks.
Recovery varies among individuals. With timely treatment and organised rehabilitation, some patients experience significant recovery and improvement in their quality of life. Regular follow-ups will enable doctors to assess recovery progress and manage risk factors to prevent stroke recurrences.
