How to Diagnose Encephalopathy
Work with the patient begins with diagnosis, including identifying the causes of this disease. There are 3 degrees of severity, which differ in the intensity of symptoms. At 1 degree, signs do not appear externally, and pathologies are detected only after a detailed examination.
Grade 2 encephalopathy is characterized by moderate symptoms, which are usually successfully removed with medical intervention. At the onset of grade 3, irreversible changes appear that lead to serious problems, including disability. Contacting a specialist is recommended when symptoms such as:
- Recurrent headaches. They can concentrate on a single area or capture the entire volume of the head. An important feature is the constant progression and poor relief of analgesics.
- Dizziness. With this symptom, a person may even get lost in space, so he prefers to go to bed. It can be accompanied by nausea and vomiting caused by it.
- Decreased cognitive abilities. It is especially common in the elderly, but it happens at other ages. Due to circulatory disorders, memory deteriorates, concentration decreases, difficulties arise with switching from one occupation to another.
- Emotional deterioration. A person has weak control over emotions, irritability appears, often turning into tearfulness, including in men. With the development of the disease, a person becomes apathetic, depressive states appear.
- Impaired muscle tone. Muscles can be pathologically tense or relaxed, tremors, uncontrolled movements often appear.
- Deterioration of hearing and vision, progressive increase in weather sensitivity.
To make a diagnosis, it is not necessary to have all the symptoms. Some patients develop behavioral disorders, others–senses or coordination are affected. It all depends on which area is most affected by the disease.
How the treatment works
At the initial stage, a survey and examination of the patient is carried out to collect information and assess his current condition. Be sure to conduct electroencephalography, which will identify the affected areas of the brain.
If necessary, other examinations, including a blood test, may be prescribed. Treatment of dyscirculatory encephalopathy grade 2 includes the following set of procedures aimed at normalizing the condition of patients.
- The appointment of nootropic drugs to regulate metabolism.
- Blood thinning drugs help normalize blood flow in the brain. Angioprotectors are prescribed for the same purpose.
- In complex cases, sedative and anticonvulsant complexes are prescribed.
- Vitamins help to support the body during the course.
- In parallel, it is necessary to remove the symptoms of concomitant diseases: normalize sugar levels and blood pressure, optimize the work of the endocrine system, remove toxins and normalize cholesterol.
If the 3rd degree of the disease has occurred, the general principles remain the same, but the patient is hospitalized and cared for around the clock. During rehabilitation, physiological procedures are involved, especially well they help at grade 2 or when post-traumatic encephalopathy is diagnosed. They are.
