What Are The Chances Of Recovery After A Stroke?

Hi my uncle suffered a stroke that doctors says the stroke affected the middle of his brain and if he were to recover he would be paralyzed on his left side. It s been a week and he s still unconscious. He is having trouble breathing with the tubes he has and has developed a fever. What are the chances my uncle will recover from this?

Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist,  's  Response
Patient will recover from the fever and associated problems when he is getting good treatment. And his body is responding to it. Now about the stroke if he is paralyse one side then it will take time to recover. Recovery time is not define it depends on amount of damage in brain due to stroke. I suggest to start physio therapy immediately he recovers from critical care unit and comes to ward as well post discharge at hospital. Physio therapy will help him to recover at least up to the extent where he can do his daily routine activity on his own.
