What is the standard of heart health?

The heart is the center of the systemic circulation system and the organ that attracts our attention most. Similarly, once it gets sick, it will do great harm to our health. At present, cardiovascular disease has become the biggest killer threatening China people. It is very important to protect heart health and prevent heart disease. For the heart, besides ECG examination, cholesterol, blood pressure, resting heart rate, fasting blood glucose level and C-reactive protein are also closely related to the health of the heart.

Five key criteria of heart health

1, hypercholesterolemia:

Hypercholesterolemia can induce coronary heart disease.

. Too high concentration of cholesterol is easy to deposit in the coronary artery of the heart, leading to stenosis or even occlusion of the heart blood vessels, and then myocardial ischemia and even myocardial infarction. The risk of coronary heart disease caused by hyperlipidemia can be avoided if the blood lipid level is detected in time and reduced by taking medicine.

2. Hypertension: the primary risk factor of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in the history of hypertension. The increase of blood pressure increases the difficulty and intensity of heart pumping, which will cause myocardial hypertrophy and heart failure over time. At present, antihypertensive drug therapy is very mature. As long as the blood pressure is detected regularly, it will be maintained within the normal range, effectively preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

3. Resting heart rate:

Resting heart rate refers to the number of heartbeats per minute when awake and inactive. It is believed that the heart rate is determined by the energy metabolism demand of the human body. When the body's energy is exhausted, life will end, and heart rate is an effective indicator to reflect the body's energy metabolism. If the heart rate is too fast at rest, it means that life expectancy will be shortened, but there is no need to worry about it. After moderate exercise, smoking and drinking, and weight control, the heart rate will slow down accordingly. Director Zhang Ya suggested that the best resting heart rate should be kept between 60 and 79 beats/min.

4. Diabetes: Diabetes is very harmful to the cardiovascular system. Hyperglycemia damages the intimal cells of anxiety nuclei, causing vascular stenosis, often accompanied by coronary heart disease.

. Therefore, this part of patients with hyperglycemia must undergo regular hypoglycemic treatment to avoid sequelae to the heart.

5.c-reactive protein:

C-reactive protein exists in the blood and is an acute phase reactive protein, which is produced by human liver. When myocardial cells are damaged, the index will increase obviously, which plays a key role in helping doctors to judge whether myocardial infarction has occurred and take corresponding rescue measures.
