1, primary disease treatment
The standardized diagnosis and treatment of heart failure is particularly critical. Hypertension, diabetes, myocardial infarction, chronic kidney disease, obesity and metabolic syndrome are all risk factors for heart failure. Actively treat the primary disease. Patients with bad heart at ordinary times should pay attention to treating the primary disease as soon as possible, taking medicine on time according to the doctor's advice, so that the body can recover as soon as possible and reduce the occurrence of heart failure.
2) Prevent respiratory tract infection. Patients with cardiovascular diseases should change clothes according to the weather changes, pay attention to cold and warmth, especially when the climate changes suddenly or respiratory infectious diseases are prevalent, pay attention to prevent colds, flu and lung infections, so as not to induce heart failure.
3) Avoid long-term massive infusion. When treating other diseases, patients with heart disease must be careful and slow in infusion, so as to avoid heart failure caused by too much fluid input in a short time.
2, lifestyle concerns
1) Keeping a healthy lifestyle will greatly reduce the chance of getting heart disease. Pay attention to ensure adequate sleep, do not do heavy physical labor, do not participate in more strenuous exercise, and avoid overwork.
2) Pay attention to a healthy diet, pay attention to a balanced diet, and eat foods that are low in fat, high in protein and rich in vitamins and minerals. Don't eat too greasy, salty or spicy food, and don't drink strong tea or coffee. It is emphasized here that there must be a low-salt diet.
3) Quit smoking and drinking. Smoking and drinking do great harm to your health. Some middle-aged and elderly people should reduce smoking and drinking. For your own health, you should always pay attention to preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and stay away from alcohol and tobacco.
4) master the amount of exercise. Moderate exercise is helpful for cardiovascular patients to improve their symptoms when their condition is stable. But you should listen to the doctor's instructions and choose the exercise mode that suits you, such as walking, brisk walking and playing Tai Ji Chuan. Step by step, feel comfortable after exercise.
5) Emotional pleasure prevents fluctuations. Bad emotions such as irritability, anxiety and depression induce heart failure. Therefore, patients with cardiovascular diseases should control their mentality, prevent mood swings and maintain psychological balance.
3, regular review and physical examination
Patients with chronic heart disease need long-term medication. Patients should also have regular outpatient review, with the purpose of adjusting the dosage of therapeutic drugs and dealing with adverse reactions or side effects after taking drugs, so as not to delay the illness and lead to adverse consequences.
4. Early treatment of heart failure.
Once patients with cardiovascular diseases have symptoms like progressive ankle swelling, fatigue after exercise, cough, shortness of breath and so on, or appear emotional and mental abnormalities like psychosis or cerebrovascular disease, it is likely to be an early signal of heart failure. They should go to the hospital cardiology department in time for early diagnosis and treatment.
As can be seen from the above, the premise of heart failure is that the heart has various diseases, so strengthening the prevention of heart disease can significantly reduce the possibility of heart failure. The most important measure to prevent heart failure is to actively prevent and treat various factors that may lead to heart disease. After a heart attack, active and regular treatment can greatly reduce the risk of heart failure.
