Physiotherapy Approach to a Bilateral Pontine Infarct With Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Case Report.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
Strokes are prevalent, although only some impact the pons, a brainstem region that performs essential functions. Because pontine infarcts are uncommon, there isn't sufficient research to back up efficient therapies that give patients functional advantages. This case report presents a 75-year-old male who was brought to the casualty with a history of falls and developed weakness on the left side of the body, dysarthria, and dysphagia, for which he was referred to the neurophysiotherapy department after performing the necessary investigations. A neurological examination was carried out, and a physiotherapy protocol was made. Outcome measures were taken before and after physiotherapy rehabilitation, including the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Berg Balance Scale, and Functional Independence Measure (FIM). The physiotherapy treatment showed a considerable improvement in the patient's overall health.
