Neurology is the clinical department for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the central and peripheral nervous systems, primarily involving functional abnormalities of the brain, spinal cord, nerve roots, peripheral nerves and muscles. Neurological diseases have complex etiologies and diverse presentations, demanding high precision in diagnosis and timeliness in treatment; the department therefore consistently emphasizes early recognition, rapid management and full-course care. Scope of Services and Common Conditions The department's main clinical scope includes: acute treatment and secondary prevention of cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral infarction and intracerebral hemorrhage; headache, migraine and tension-type headache; dizziness and vertigo; diagnosis of epilepsy and standardized antiepileptic therapy; Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders; peripheral neuropathy, facial palsy, limb numbness and weakness; neuroimmune diseases such as myasthenia gravis and multiple sclerosis; and cognitive disorders including Alzheimer's disease. For symptoms such as headache, dizziness, limb weakness, numbness, seizures and memory decline, the department provides systematic diagnosis and treatment. Specialized Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques The department routinely performs cranial CT, magnetic resonance imaging, cerebrovascular ultrasound, electroencephalography and electromyography, enabling comprehensive assessment of brain structure, vasculature and neurological function. The department places great emphasis on the thrombolysis and thrombectomy treatment windows for acute cerebrovascular disease, using the stroke green channel to secure the best treatment opportunity for patients. It also combines neuropsychological assessment, cognitive function training and rehabilitation guidance to help patients improve function and return to life. Who Should Visit and Clinic Guide Individuals with cerebrovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes and atrial fibrillation, those with recurrent headache and dizziness, and people presenting with limb numbness or weakness, slurred speech, memory decline or seizure episodes should visit Neurology. If sudden unilateral limb weakness, facial drooping or slurred speech occurs, call the emergency hotline immediately and seize the golden window for stroke treatment. Clinic Notes Neurological diseases often require long-term management and follow-up. Epilepsy patients should take medication regularly and avoid triggers; Parkinson's disease patients should persist in rehabilitation training and attend regular follow-up visits to adjust medication. Family members should pay attention to cognitive changes in older adults; when marked memory decline or personality changes occur, seek medical assessment as early as possible. Department Features and Advantages. Neurology relies on the stroke green channel and multidisciplinary collaboration to secure the best treatment opportunity for cerebrovascular disease patients. The department emphasizes precise diagnosis of neurological diseases, clarifying the etiology through imaging, electrophysiological and neuroimmunological examinations, and carries out standardized secondary prevention. For chronic neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease and epilepsy, it provides long-term management combined with rehabilitation training to improve patients' function and quality of life. Daily Prevention and Health Advice. Maintaining brain health lies in controlling risk factors. It is recommended to exercise regularly, maintain a balanced diet, control blood pressure, blood glucose and blood lipids, and quit smoking and limit alcohol. Middle-aged and older adults who experience memory decline or slowed responses should seek medical assessment as early as possible. Master the FAST stroke recognition method (Face, Arms, Speech, Time); if any abnormality is detected, call the emergency hotline immediately and do not wait and observe. Appointments and Friendly Reminders. Patients can book appointments for the corresponding specialty outpatient clinics through the hospital website, by phone or on this platform. Please bring your ID, previous medical records and recent examination reports when visiting, and truthfully inform the physician of your current medications, allergies and past medical history so that an individualized plan can be developed. For special examinations requiring fasting, bladder filling or bowel preparation, please prepare strictly according to the physician's instructions in advance to ensure accurate results. The department implements a first-visit responsibility system, establishing health management records for you and providing continuous services from outpatient care, examination and treatment to follow-up. If you have any questions, please feel free to consult the hospital's in-house guidance desk or online customer service. We will wholeheartedly provide you with attentive, professional medical services, and we wish you a speedy recovery. |
