What Is The Life Expectancy In An Elderly Person With Heart Stroke?

Hi,
My father had a stroke yesterday in India and he in ICU. I am in USA and am felling helpless and dont know what can I do. He open his eyes and closes. He has senses, They have tied the hands as he is moving his hands too much and the heart machine(I do not know exactly what is the instrument) moves. Can you let me know the risk . he is 70 years old.
