What are the hazards of hypotension?

Question 1: What is the cause of high hypotension? What's the harm to your health? The cause of disease

1. Habitual factor inheritance

About half of hypertensive patients have a family history.

2. Environmental factors

3. Age

The incidence rate tends to increase with age, and the incidence rate is high in people over 40 years old.

4. Others

The incidence of obesity is high; Contraceptive pills; Sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome.

Clinically, hypertension can be divided into two categories:

1. Essential hypertension

It is an independent disease with elevated blood pressure as its main clinical manifestation, but the cause is still unclear.

2. Secondary hypertension

Also known as symptomatic hypertension, the etiology of this kind of disease is clear. Hypertension is only one of the clinical manifestations of this kind of disease, and blood pressure can rise temporarily or permanently.

clinical picture

Symptoms of hypertension vary from person to person. There may be no symptoms or obvious symptoms in the early stage, and blood pressure will rise only after fatigue, mental tension and emotional fluctuation, and return to normal after rest. With the prolongation of the course of disease, blood pressure increases obviously and continuously, and various symptoms will appear gradually. This is called progressive hypertension. The common clinical symptoms of progressive hypertension include headache, dizziness, inattention, memory loss, numbness of limbs, nocturia, palpitation, chest tightness, fatigue and so on. When blood pressure suddenly rises to a certain extent, there will even be severe symptoms such as headache, vomiting, palpitation and dizziness, and in severe cases, there will be confusion and convulsions. This belongs to acute hypertension and hypertensive critical illness, which often causes serious damage and pathological changes of heart, brain, kidney and other organs in a short time, such as stroke, myocardial infarction, renal failure and so on. There is no consistent relationship between symptoms and elevated blood pressure.

The etiology of hypertension is unknown, and the related factors are:

1. age: the incidence rate tends to increase with age, and the incidence rate is high in people over 40 years old.

2. Salt: People who eat more salt have a high incidence of hypertension. Some people think that the incidence of salt 20g/ day is 30%.

3. Weight: Obese people have a high incidence.

4. Heredity: About half of patients with hypertension have a family history.

5. Environment and occupation: noisy working environment and excessive mental work are prone to hypertension, and the incidence of hypertension in cities is higher than that in rural areas.

Question 2: What harm does blood pressure do to people? In clinical medicine, the normal range of adult blood pressure is: systolic blood pressure 90- 139mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 60-89 mmHg；; The normal range of pulse pressure difference is 30-40mm Hg. Generally, greater than 60 mmHg is called pulse pressure difference increase, and less than 20 mmHg is called pulse pressure difference decrease. The main clinical symptoms of patients with hypotension: mild symptoms may include dizziness, headache, loss of appetite, fatigue, pallor, indigestion, carsickness, etc. Severe symptoms include: upright vertigo, chills in limbs, palpitations, dyspnea, ataxia, unclear pronunciation, even syncope, and long-term bed rest. The symptoms of hypertension often vary from person to person and from time to time. Early symptoms are mostly asymptomatic or not obvious, and are occasionally found during physical examination or blood pressure measurement for other reasons. There is no consistent relationship between symptoms and the degree of hypertension, which may be related to higher neurological dysfunction. Some people have low blood pressure but many symptoms, while others have high blood pressure but no obvious symptoms. Common symptoms are: 1. Dizziness: Dizziness is the most common symptom of hypertension. Some are transient, often appearing when suddenly squatting or standing up, and some are persistent. 2. Headache: Headache is also a common symptom of hypertension, mostly persistent dull pain or pulsating pain, and even burst-like pain. It often happens when you wake up in the morning, get up and gradually decrease after meals. The pain is mostly in the temples and the back of the head on both sides of the forehead. 3. Irritability, palpitation and insomnia: Patients with hypertension are impatient, sensitive and excitable. Panic and insomnia are more common. Insomnia is mostly caused by difficulties in falling asleep or waking up early, false sleep, changeable nightmares, easy to wake up, etc. 4. inattention and memory loss: not obvious in the early stage, but gradually aggravated with the development of the disease. 5. numbness of limbs: common numbness of fingers and toes or skin, such as the feeling of mosquitoes or the tension and pain of neck and back muscles. 6. Bleeding: rare. Because hypertension can cause arteriosclerosis, blood vessel elasticity decreases, brittleness increases, and it is easy to rupture and bleed. Among them, nosebleeds are more common.

Question 3: What is the harm of low blood pressure? The main changes in the body of patients with hypotension lead to slow blood circulation and distal capillary ischemia, which affects the supply of oxygen and nutrients to tissues and cells and the excretion of carbon dioxide and metabolic waste. Because the drop in blood pressure affects the blood supply to the brain and heart, the function of the body is greatly reduced, and the quality of work and life is correspondingly reduced. Major danger? Dizziness, fatigue, fatigue and decreased working ability? External factors such as syncope, falls, fractures, etc. help and death increase? Cause mental disorders such as depression and depression? Induce transient cerebral ischemia, cerebral infarction and myocardial ischemia? Hearing impairment, visual impairment? The quality of life is reduced, and the harm of hypotension is not small. From a medical point of view, hypertension and hypotension are not good. However, people tend to pay more attention to the harm of hypertension than to the harm of hypotension. They often think that high blood pressure is not enough, and it doesn't matter if it is lower. In fact, the harm of hypotension is not small, especially for the elderly. For example, elderly people with low blood pressure usually feel nothing. Once infection and high fever occur, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, listlessness and other symptoms are easy to occur, and even syncope or shock will be caused soon, which is dangerous. In addition, with the increase of the age of the elderly, the degree of arteriosclerosis is also increasing year by year. If the blood pressure is too low, the heart, brain and other important organs of the whole body are prone to ischemia, leading to life-threatening diseases such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and cerebral thrombosis. Therefore, the elderly should also pay attention to hypotension. First, the standard and type of hypotension is not to say that blood pressure is reduced, but "hypotension". There is a standard for hypotension, which is generally called hypotension when the blood pressure is lower than 90/60 mm Hg in medicine. But when the blood pressure of the elderly is low, it is 100/60mmhg. Hypotension associated with the elderly can be roughly divided into the following categories: 1. Primary hypotension. The cause of this hypotension is still unknown, and the incidence rate is about 2.5%. Although the blood pressure of this kind of people has been relatively low, they have no discomfort symptoms, which are generally found when blood pressure is detected in the body, and the cause of hypotension cannot be found. This kind of hypotension is more common in women or people with poor constitution, so it is also called "constitutional hypotension". Some people think that this kind of hypotension may be related to family inheritance. 2.*** Hypotension. This refers to the sudden change from supine to upright, or when standing for a long time, blood pressure drops, dizziness, and even syncope, resulting in temporary incontinence. The etiology of this kind of hypotension is not completely clear, which may be related to factors such as poor automatic regulation of cerebral blood flow or dysfunction of autonomic nervous system in cerebral arteriosclerosis. 3. Secondary hypotension. This kind of hypotension is a symptom caused by some acute and chronic diseases, so it is also called "symptomatic hypotension" in clinic. Obviously, the cause of this hypotension is clear, such as chronic anemia, aortic stenosis, cardiomyopathy, some wasting diseases such as tumor, tuberculosis, malnutrition caused by long-term bed rest, etc., which can all cause chronic hypotension. Some elderly people's blood pressure is not low at ordinary times, but it belongs to acute hypotension only when acute hemorrhage and serious infection, such as toxic pneumonia or acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, or even shock. Hypotension and hypotension treatment should be aimed at different types of hypotension. If it is secondary hypotension, we should actively treat the primary disease. Only when the primary disease is cured can the hypotension be corrected. For the elderly with * * * hypotension, be careful in daily life to avoid accidents such as falling down due to sudden drop of blood pressure. For example, when you get up in the morning, you should change from lying position to sitting position, and change from sitting position to standing position step by step. It's best to lie down for a while after waking up, and then sit up slowly for a while. Finally, get out of bed lightly, especially when the elderly go to the toilet at night, and hold the wall with their hands when urinating to prevent sudden hypotension and fall. In addition, the elderly should avoid standing for a long time. You can also try Ginseng Shengmai Drink, which is ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus, Schisandra chinensis and other traditional Chinese medicines, each time 1 pill. 65438 +0 times in the morning and evening, also has certain effect. For patients with hypotension who have no symptoms, they usually exercise ...

Question 4: What are the hazards of high and low blood pressure? The high or low blood pressure means that the elasticity of blood vessel wall is poor, which is easy to lead to risk factors of cerebrovascular disease and arteriosclerosis, causing damage to kidney, brain tissue and eyes.

Question 5: What is hypertension and hypotension? What's the harm to your health? Your condition is hypertension. Hypertension refers to the increase of arterial systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure at rest. Hypertension is a systemic disease characterized by elevated arterial pressure, which may be accompanied by functional or organic changes of heart, blood vessels, brain and kidney. It is suggested that 1, diuretics and antihypertensive drugs 2, adrenergic receptor blockers 3, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors 4, calcium antagonists and other drugs should be treated, combined with a low-salt and low-fat diet, smoking and alcohol withdrawal and regular rest.

Dizziness, dizziness, headache, loss of appetite, fatigue, pallor, indigestion, carsickness, etc.

2. Severe symptoms:

Vertigo, cold limbs, palpitation, dyspnea, ataxia, slurred speech, even syncope and convulsion, and need to stay in bed for a long time.
