Upon learning of the news of Teacher Ma’s death, netizens expressed: Very sad! So, what kind of disease is heart failure?
1. What kind of disease is heart failure ?
"Heart failure", referred to as "heart failure", is a common disease in cardiology. Many doctors have this view, that is, heart failure is not a specific "disease", but a state, which is a state after all heart-related diseases eventually develop into heart failure. It's like whether you are a woman or a man, whether you are Chinese or American, you are an old person after the age of 60. All heart-related diseases eventually develop to a certain state, which is heart failure.
2. Is heart failure terrible?
Relevant data shows that about 50% of heart failure patients die within 5 years after diagnosis, and the mortality rate is 2 to 3 times that of advanced cancers such as breast cancer and intestinal cancer . It is precisely because of this that heart failure is also called the cancer of cardiology. Heart failure occurs when the disease progresses to a certain extent and the heart function cannot meet the needs of the normal body. Just like "aging", no matter how much treatment is given, it is impossible to "rejuvenate". This is the terrible thing about heart failure.
3. What are the early warning signs of heart failure?
There are many symptoms of heart failure, and the symptoms vary from person to person. Most of the time when heart failure is discovered, it has already been decompensated. Because heart failure is difficult to detect, you must be alert to heart failure if the following warning signs appear: 1. Decreased activity tolerance; 2. Prolonged cough that does not heal; 3. Paroxysmal dyspnea at night; 4. Multiple edema throughout the body; 5. Stomach Intestinal congestion
related symptoms.
4. How to treat heart failure?
First of all: it is the treatment of the primary disease. Which primary disease causes heart failure? If the primary disease can be cured, the patient's heart failure will be more likely to be cured!
Secondly: treatment to improve the symptoms of heart failure, the common ones are cardiotonic, diuretic, vasodilator, respiratory support, etc.!
The third one is the treatment to improve the prognosis of heart failure. The most common ones are the "new quadruple" drugs!
Finally: Heart failure patients should have surgical and interventional methods such as three-chamber pacemaker resynchronization therapy, heart transplantation , left bundle branch pacing, and left ventricular assist devices.
But no matter what kind of treatment, the best method is still prevention. The best way to prevent heart failure is to actively treat the underlying disease, change your lifestyle, and avoid the occurrence of heart failure. Moreover, early detection, early treatment and early intervention can effectively extend the life span of heart failure patients and improve their quality of life!
