How to identify STROKE symptom?

September 05, 2009 By: admin Category: Healthcare

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.

stroke
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking four simple questions:

S *Ask the individual to SMILE.
T *Ask the person to TALK and speak a simple sentence (Coherently) (Example: It is sunny out today.)
R *Ask him or her to Raise both arms.
S *Ask him to stick out his Tongue

If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call emergency number immediatelyand describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

NOTE: Ask the person to ’stick’ out his tongue.. If the tongue is ‘crooked’, if it goes to one side or the other, that is also an indication of a stroke.

A true story.

During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall – she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics). She said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.

bbq

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 6pm 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.

A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.

How to bathe a cat

August 27, 2009 By: admin Category: Idea Box

Everyone knows that cats hate getting wet. Cats generally keep themselves clean, and therefore should not be bathed any more often than is absolutely necessary. But they sometimes get especially dirty, get bombarded by fleas or ticks, or get into substances that are toxic or otherwise harmful. On such occasions, it is a good idea to bathe your cat. Here’s how to keep your feline fresh and lovely as painlessly as possible.

1) Decide whether your cat really needs a bath. There may be other ways to clean your cat, such as brushing the cat, combing or even rubbing down with a cloth.

2) Wear appropriate clothing. Not only is it important to wash your cat but it is important to be safe from any possible scratches, major or minor. A jumper or a long-sleeved shirt must be worn so that your cat has no bare skin to scratch, and it is a good idea to wear clothing that isn’t new. cat

3) Get at least two people involved.

4) Trim all nails.

5) Put a rubber mat in the tub or use a towel.

6) Have shampoo and a small wash cloth ready.

7) Rinse thoroughly with the water in the tub, blot and finish drying. With long-haired cats, you will have to use a comb and more towels. Long hairs mat more easily when wet, so you may wish to comb the coat until it is completely dry.
