In addition, patients with coronary heart disease are most afraid of heart failure, but there are only five steps for coronary heart disease to develop into heart failure: angina pectoris attack-acute myocardial infarction-ischemic cardiomyopathy-cardiac systolic dysfunction-heart failure.
Therefore, patients with coronary heart disease must master all kinds of knowledge about heart failure and do a good job in prevention.
Heart failure is the abbreviation of heart failure, which mainly refers to the disorder of systolic and diastolic functions of the heart, which can not fully discharge venous blood from the heart, leading to congestion of venous system and insufficient blood perfusion of arterial system, thus causing cardiac circulatory disorder syndrome. This disorder is characterized by pulmonary congestion and vena cava congestion.
Simply put, the heart is the blood supply pump of the human body, which pumps the blood in the blood vessels to various tissues and organs for 24 hours. Heart failure refers to that the pump of the heart cannot work normally, resulting in abnormal pumping and backflow of blood.
1, having difficulty falling asleep and suddenly waking up.
Patients with heart failure have difficulty falling asleep and will suddenly wake up without warning. After that, there will be a short period of palpitation and shortness of breath, and the symptoms will gradually ease after sitting up. This symptom appears at night.
2. Depression is often accompanied by depression.
Patients with heart failure are usually depressed, and the incidence of depression is 2~3 times that of normal people!
3. Cough and asthma
Heart failure often manifests as frequent dry cough or chest tightness and asthma at first, especially during activity and fatigue.
4, nocturia increased
In patients with heart failure, due to decreased cardiac output, systemic congestion, decreased effective circulating blood volume and insufficient renal blood flow, the total urine volume in 24 hours decreased and nocturia increased relatively.
5, edema of lower limbs
Swelling of feet and ankles is a common symptom of heart failure. When the feet, especially the ankles, continue to swell and the shoes don't fit, we should pay attention to them.
Heart failure in patients with coronary heart disease will lead to very serious consequences, so patients with coronary heart disease must take preventive measures.
In addition, we must master the knowledge about heart failure, after all, early detection and early treatment will have a better therapeutic effect.
