Abstract

This case report presents a 54-year-old male with a history of type-2 diabetes mellitus who experienced sudden unconsciousness and vomiting, leading to aspiration and subsequent diagnosis of a hemorrhagic stroke. The patient underwent an immediate decompressive craniotomy, revealing a sizable intraparenchymal hematoma in the right basal ganglia and corona radiata. Postoperatively, the patient exhibited left-sided weakness, hyporeflexia, and cognitive impairment. A comprehensive neurophysiotherapy intervention addressed impaired mobility, strength, balance, coordination, respiratory complications, pain management, and other associated challenges. The rehabilitation protocol involved diverse strategies such as passive and active exercises, sensory stimulation, and the application of neurophysiotherapeutic approaches. The patient's progress was assessed using various outcome measures. Neurophysiotherapy plays a crucial role in the recovery of decompressive craniotomy.
