有個朋友，在一次烤肉聚會當中絆倒了，摔了一跤，

但她很確定自己沒事，只是穿了新鞋被磚塊絆了一下罷了。

腦神經外科醫師說，

訣竅就是辨識診斷出中風的問題，
The trick is how to diagnose a stroke,
   
並讓病患在三小時之內接受醫療，

而這是很難的。

感謝上帝讓我們記住 STR 三步驟，

有時候中風的癥兆很難辨認，
Sometimes it's not easy to identify a stroke,
   
不幸的是，缺乏警覺就會帶來災難。
Yet unfortunately, it will bring disaster without proper alert.
   
身邊的人辨認不出中風的徵兆，
If people around a stroke patient are not able to tell a stroke,
   
4 c( m3 ~4 b! [6 u8 ^) S中風患者就會嚴重腦傷。

: K/ x" m% w: Z; b, F. ^- m; c   
就可以辨識中風：

S ： (smile) 要求患者笑一下

8 p% F8 c  Q5 O$ W6 A

R ： (raise) 要求 患者舉起雙手

注意 Note：
另外一項中風癥兆是： 要求患者伸出舌頭 ，如果舌頭「彎曲」或偏向一邊，那也是中風的徵兆
One more diagnose method of stroke is : Tell the patient to extrude his tongue. If the tongue is bending or leaning towards one side, that is also a symptom of stroke.

上面四個動作，患者如果有任何一個動作做不來，就要立刻打 999 ！！！並! 且把症狀描述給接線者聽。

谢谢！
前些日子美国一个明星在魁北克学滑雪的时候，滑了一脚，肯定不严重，好象急救车来了被打发走了，因为不严重嘛，但是后来就不行了。
我去找找那个事件

好像中风和head trauma有本质的区别，但是无论如何，脑袋出问题，可不是小问题
