How to identify the precursors of cardiac insufficiency? The so-called insufficient blood supply to the heart refers to the clinical syndrome of acute and transient myocardial ischemia and hypoxia due to various reasons. The most common cause is atherosclerotic stenosis and occlusion of coronary artery, which is usually called coronary heart disease. In addition, there are a few young patients whose coronary artery stenosis is caused by persistent spasm, rather than organic stenosis.
What are the precursors of cardiac insufficiency?
The common symptom at first is usually feeling tired. All the blood in our body is supplied by the "blood pump" of the heart. Once the heart is ischemic, the blood supply to the whole body will also decrease. When there is mild ischemia, people will feel tired and weak. This kind of fatigue caused by heart ischemia is different from fatigue caused by daily fatigue and insomnia, and can basically recover after rest, but fatigue caused by heart has nothing to do with rest.
In addition to fatigue and weakness, there will be symptoms such as chest tightness, breath holding, shortness of breath and palpitation after the activity. Further development, there will be heart pain, namely angina pectoris. This kind of pain is manifested as squeezing and coughing pain in the heart, which can radiate to the neck, scapula and the inner side of the left upper arm, usually lasting for 3-5 minutes, and can be relieved by rest or taking drugs for treating angina pectoris. These are all signs of insufficient blood supply to the heart. If chest pain is needle-tip-sized, needle-like and lasts for several seconds, it is generally not myocardial ischemia.
When coronary artery stenosis further develops to blockage, myocardial infarction appears, which is a life-threatening emergency. What are the specific precursors and manifestations of myocardial infarction?
The precursor and manifestation of myocardial infarction is more severe angina pectoris, which is the same as angina pectoris in essence, but the duration of myocardial infarction is longer and the pain is heavier, usually lasting more than half an hour. Rest or taking nitroglycerin can't relieve it, and it is often accompanied by symptoms such as sweating and difficulty breathing.
In today's rich material life, many people suffer from hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes, obesity and other factors, such as unreasonable diet and too little exercise. These are high-risk groups of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which are easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. If these high-risk groups have the above-mentioned short-term heartburn, they should be alert to angina pectoris and severe and persistent heartburn that is difficult to relieve. They should be alert to the possible precursors and manifestations of myocardial infarction and call 120 for medical treatment in time, otherwise their lives will be in danger.
Drug therapy is the basis of treatment, whether it is acute attack of coronary heart disease or long-term prevention. Nitroglycerins are commonly used in western medicine, but long-term use will produce drug resistance and have certain side effects. Clinicians and patients prefer Chinese patent medicines, such as Shexiang Baoxin Pills, which have a good effect on relieving angina pectoris and treating myocardial ischemia, and can quickly relieve the symptoms of chest tightness and chest pain, and take effect in 30 seconds. Shexiang Baoxin Pill can continuously improve myocardial ischemia by relaxing coronary artery, protecting vascular endothelium, stabilizing plaque and promoting angiogenesis. Low side effects and no drug resistance after long-term use. Shexiang Baoxin Pill plays a unique role in promoting angiogenesis because of its excellent curative effect and high safety.
In short, once there is a precursor of insufficient blood supply to the heart, don't be too nervous, and don't be anxious as soon as you have a slight heart discomfort. Go to the hospital for investigation in time. If it is angina pectoris, change the unhealthy lifestyle and take medicine as soon as possible. If you have signs and manifestations of myocardial infarction, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to avoid life-threatening.
