While being treated at KKHI Medina, the congregation was not fitted with breathing apparatus and feeding tubes. According to dr. The Rifky in question still has a pretty good swallowing response
“He is able to swallow and not choke, so we don’t attach a feeding tube” he said
During the recovery process, the person concerned receives regular passive physical therapy to reduce muscle weakness and joint adhesions. Therapy is carried out starting from sitting therapy, limb movement of the hands and feet.
“We wake up by staying leaning on the bed (bed) slowly, starting at 450, then 600 for 10 minutes. If the tension is good, it can be up to 900 upright position for five minutes, then repeated for 30-60 minutes per day” explained dr. Rifky
