Heart disease is a general term for heart disease caused by abnormal heart structure and function. It includes many types of heart disease, mainly divided into congenital and acquired heart disease, and heart disease accounts for a large proportion of all causes of death.
Although the mortality rate of heart disease is relatively high, with the improvement of medical technology in recent decades, the mortality rate of heart disease deaths worldwide has shown a downward trend. Different heart diseases have different clinical manifestations and varying severity.
There are several kinds of heart diseases that are mild heart diseases. If you hear these kinds of heart diseases, don’t be scared by the name, and don’t overtreat them.
Cardiovascular doctor: Don’t worry too much about these 5 "heart diseases", and don’t over-treat
Premature heart beat
Premature heart beat is the most common arrhythmia , divided into atrial premature beat and ventricular premature beat. For most elderly people, premature heart beats are mainly palpitations , and most of the time, there will be no other discomfort symptoms. Generally, we believe that if premature heart attacks occur only occasionally and do not exceed five times per minute, there is no need for special treatment. You only need to adjust your living habits in daily life to be relieved.
But if the attack occurs frequently or someone with a history of heart disease, you should pay attention. Once you find that this is the case, it is best to go to the hospital in time.
room, ventricular septal defect
1 room, ventricular septal defect generally belongs to congenital heart disease . It is common for children, especially if the child is just born, he will undergo a comprehensive physical examination. Do not be afraid or anxious when this situation occurs, because generally the child will automatically close before the age of two, so don’t rush to undergo surgery at this time.
Most doctors will also recommend that you wait for about a year and take a look at the development after the later re-examination. If there is a closure, everyone will be happy. If not, it will not be too late to perform the surgery at this time.
mitral valve regurgitation
mitral valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle, like a valve in the heart. Mitral valve regurgitation can be understood as the door is not closed and the air is leaking. When many people hear about mitral valve regurgitation, they mistakenly think it is a serious illness.
But in fact, mild mitral regurgitation can generally be ignored because it has neither symptoms nor any substantial impact. You only need to review the cardiac ultrasound every six months to one year to observe its dynamics.
Sinus arrhythmia
Many patients mistakenly think that they have arrhythmia when they see "sinus arrhythmia" reported on the electrocardiogram. In fact, sinus arrhythmia is not a normal manifestation.
The heart rate is fast when you are sympathetic and excited, and the heart rhythm is slow when you are vagus excited. During the day, exercise, excitement, frightened, sympathetic excitement when drinking strong tea and coffee, the electrical activity in the sinoatria node accelerates. When you fall asleep, the electrical activity of the sinus node slows down.
even exhale and inhalation, sympathetic vagus will be alternately excited, the sinus heart rate will be slightly faster when inhaled, and the sinus heart rate will slow down when exhaled. Therefore, sinus arrhythmia is a manifestation of normal health, not arrhythmia.
Left ventricular diastolic function hypotension
The occurrence of left ventricular diastolic function hypotension mainly refers to the restriction of the left ventricular function in the patient's body, causing abnormal left ventricular filling. When the left ventricle contracts, the blood pumps flow to the aorta and then the whole body. When diastolic, the peripheral blood pressure will be absorbed back to the heart. Only when the heart contracts and diastolic functions are good will the heart function improve.
The heart is working continuously, and working for a long time will inevitably cause some strain. If it is normal aging, the loss of left ventricular diastolic function is a relatively common phenomenon.
If the patient suffers from coronary heart disease , myocardial ischemia due to coronary heart disease, causing the left ventricle to decrease active relaxation and causing diastolic function to decrease. It is necessary to actively give drugs to improve myocardial ischemia. If necessary, interventional treatment or surgical bypass surgery should be given.
How long can you live if you have heart disease?
How long can you live if you have a heart disease mainly depends on the type of heart disease in the patient, the treatment effect and timeliness, and you can survive for about 5-10 years.
There are many types of heart disease, including myocarditis , angina pectoris, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, heart failure , etc. Many types of heart disease will be controlled after timely treatment.
is like a more dangerous myocardial infarction. If thrombolysis treatment can be performed in time or stent interventional treatment, and regular medication and re-examination after the operation can extend life for a long time, and many patients can survive for more than ten years.
However, if it is severe heart insufficiency, when it reaches a very serious stage, the heart will experience obvious total heart enlargement, or the heart disease state caused by large-scale myocardial infarction, and the recurring myocardial ischemia state, etc. These problems will have serious clinical consequences and need to actively cooperate with treatment.
Heart disease patients should develop good living and eating habits, maintain a normal and healthy lifestyle, stabilize their emotions, maintain weight, ensure good sleep quality, and actively cooperate with professional doctors for treatment.
