Since the fetal period, our hearts have been working hard. Heartbeat is our innate "skill", and the speed of the heartbeat is also an important cornerstone of our health. In a quiet state, the normal heart rate of adults is 60 to 100 beats per minute. Studies have shown that higher resting heart rate in is associated with higher mortality rates in , even for those without risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Qu Wenchao, deputy director of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, said that the number of heartbeats in person in his lifetime is relatively fixed, and the speed of the heartbeat is closely related to the length of his life . If we want to be healthy and long-lasting, heart rate management is very important.
tachycardia, which damages blood vessel health
tachycardia, as the name suggests, heartbeats too fast . When the heart rate is 100 beats/minute, it is tachycardia , which includes physiological (sinus) tachycardia and pathological tachycardia. The latter is often accompanied by symptoms such as palpitations, chest tightness, dizziness, frequent urination, blackening in front of the eyes, fainting, etc. In severe cases, it can also lead to sudden death. "The long-term rapid heartbeat is equivalent to the rapid consumption of the 'total heartbeat' for a lifetime. This may cause heart enlargement, heart failure , harm blood vessel health, and increase the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular disease ."
In life, there are many reasons for sinus tachycardia, and the common ones are as follows:
1. When you are stressed and emotionally excited, your heartbeat will accelerate;
2. Filling meals, drinking strong tea, coffee, smoking, drinking alcohol, etc. can make the sympathetic nerves excited;
3. Taking antibiotics, ephedrine, antiasthma and other drugs;
4. Suffering from hypertension , heart failure, hyperthyroidism, infection and fever.
There are many types of pathological tachycardia
There are many types of pathological tachycardia. ventricular tachycardia and ventricular flutter (vibration) are also types of pathological tachycardia, which is the main cause of sudden death of , and can be said to be the most dangerous arrhythmia . For some patients with severe cardiac insufficiency after coronary heart disease, severe cardiac insufficiency, and congenital genetic cardiomyopathy, they should be especially wary of the occurrence of these two most dangerous arrhythmias. In addition, heart atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter are the most common arrhythmia in the elderly.
Among the types of tachycardia, the harm of atrial fibrillation is very dangerous, and atrial fibrillation can cause blood stasis. According to statistics, one in five cerebral infarction is caused by atrial fibrillation. Therefore, as long as atrial fibrillation is diagnosed, it is necessary to actively treat it.
There are currently many treatment methods for atrial fibrillation and are divided into different stages. If it is paroxysmal atrial fibrillation or a short-term persistent atrial fibrillation, radiofrequency ablation surgery can help restore normal heartbeat. However, after a long-term persistent atrial fibrillation causes changes in the atrial structure, the success rate of the surgery will drop significantly, and the prevention of stroke at this stage must be placed first. Oral anticoagulant drugs are the most common, and patients can take the traditional anticoagulant warfarin under the guidance of a doctor, or some new anticoagulant drugs such as rivaroxaban or dabigatran esters. In addition to oral anticoagulants, minimally invasive left atrial appendage occlusion surgery can be chosen to prevent stroke patients.
The heartbeat is too slow, and the body is hypoxia
The heartbeat too fast will damage blood vessel health. However, too slow heart rate is also a major health risk. Zhong Yun said that has a long-term slow heart rate, and . will cause insufficient blood pumping from the heart, resulting in ischemia and hypoxia in the body.
"If the heart rate is around 40-60 beats/minute and there is no discomfort, treatment is generally not needed. However, if the heart rate is less than 50 beats/minute for a long time and there are abnormal symptoms, such as dizziness, fatigue, shortness of breath, blackness in front of the eyes, it is recommended to seek medical treatment. If the heart rate is particularly slow (less than 40 beats/minute) , you should go to the hospital in time." Zhong Yun said that the total mortality rate of the people is the lowest in the heart rate control of 60-70 beats/minute. There are organic heart diseases such as coronary heart disease, hypertension, cardiac insufficiency and other diseases. It is recommended to control the heart rate within this range.

The institute took the lead in the diagnosis and treatment of various cardiovascular diseases in Wuwei City. For common cardiovascular diseases such as: hypertension, coronary heart disease, embolization treatment of myocardial infarction, various cardiomyopathies, heart failure, arrhythmia, pulmonary heart disease, pericarditis and endocarditis , pulmonary embolism , heart valve disease , peripheral vascular disease, dyslipidemia, etc., the treatment concept is advanced, the treatment methods are standardized, and the treatment effect is met. Permanent pacemaker implantation for chronic arrhythmia, radiofrequency ablation treatment for rapid arrhythmia, temporary heart pacemaking by bedside, coronary angiography through arterial puncture and ventricular septum active defibrillator. Rotary electrode pacing, emergency coronary contrast stent implantation for unstable angina and acute myocardial infarction. There are more than 10,000 outpatient clinics every year and 1,300 hospitalized patients. Not only has it filled the gap in medical technology in Wuwei City, and provided accurate and authoritative diagnosis and timely and effective treatment for the majority of hypertensive patients, but some projects have reached the leading position in Wuwei City and the province, and have been unanimously recognized by peers in the province, and their diagnosis and treatment level ranks among the best among hospitals at the same level.
Department management adheres to the idea of high-quality strategy, does not blindly follow or follow the trend, and pursues refined medical management according to the needs of patients. The impact of culture on people is immeasurable. It is a trickle, a lonely stream, a stream in the desert, but it is watering many seedlings in the dark. It was not until many years later that people knew that it would grow into a forest. Ethics, respect, fairness, modesty and prudence are the principles of medical practice that we have always advocated. Perhaps over the years, the management department has gradually formed a management connotation and set an example to influence every colleague around us.
