Who knows what life is like after heart valve replacement

1. After changing the biological valve, you don't need to take warfarin, in view of the paroxysmal episodes of atrial fibrillation, there is no atrial fibrillation at present, and long-term oral aspirin is required**.

2. If you don't take warfarin, you don't need to test the coagulation function of blood. Aspirin generally does not affect blood clotting function, but it is necessary to check the blood routine, and it is only occasionally checked.

3. After the discontinuation of amiodarone, it can be replaced with a small dose of receptor blocker, such as betalux sustained-release tablets 1 4 tablets once a day oral start, gradually increase the dose, please adjust the dose under the guidance of a doctor to see how the heart rate level is. In fact, a heart rate of 55 60 beats is acceptable, no fuss.

4. Long-term oral administration of receptor blockers can reduce the onset of atrial fibrillation and inhibit changes in heart structure.

5. Radiofrequency ablation ** atrial fibrillation, you can continue to observe, do not rush to surgery, eat receptor blockers well, and electrical cardioversion when the drug does not work, if you are older, it is safer to be conservative.

Your condition is mainly related to the infection that occurs after the surgery, and the cause of the infection needs to be identified and effective**

If the above conditions occur after heart valve replacement surgery, it is recommended to take aspirin for a long time, and if atrial fibrillation is recurrent, warfarin.

Anticoagulation is generally not required after half a year of anticoagulation with warfarin after bioprosthetic valve replacement**, unless there are other pathologies such as coronary heart disease and atrial fibrillation that require continued anticoagulation. Preoperative atrial fibrillation, the heart may turn into sinus rhythm after the relapse during surgery, taking amiodarone is to maintain sinus rhythm, generally taking amiodarone for too long, and the electrocardiogram should be reviewed regularly to avoid poisoning. In your case, it is still best to go to the hospital regularly for a follow-up ECG, and do not anticoagulate if it is sinus rhythm.

If it is changed to atrial fibrillation rhythm, warfarin is still required to avoid the formation of blood clots due to atrial fibrillation, and it is recommended to go to the cardiology department to see if there is an indication for radiofrequency.

1. Low-salt, easy-to-digest diet.

To prevent and reduce edema, a low-salt or salt-free diet should be used for post-valve maintenance after heart valve surgery. 2 grams of salt when cooking with low salt; Table salt contains 391 grams of sodium, or 10 mg equivalent to soy sauce.

2. Supplement more potassium.

In addition, potassium supplementation should be paid after valve surgery, potassium deficiency can cause intestinal paralysis, severe arrhythmia, respiratory paralysis, etc., and is prone to digitalis poisoning, causing serious consequences. Therefore, patients who have been using diuretics for a long time should be encouraged to eat more foods and fruits with high potassium content, such as bananas, oranges, dates, papaya, etc. It is necessary to adapt to potassium supplementation**, or use potassium excretion in combination with potassium-sparing diuretics, and diuretic herbs with high potassium content.

3. Avoid eating foods that affect the effect of anticoagulant drugs.

Dietary care after valve surgery should be taken to avoid the chemical reaction effect of food with anticoagulant drugs. The binding rate of warfarin to plasma proteins (mainly albumin) is as high as 98 99, therefore, foods with high binding rates to plasma proteins can competitively inhibit the binding of warfarin to plasma proteins, increase the concentration of free warfarin, and enhance the anticoagulant effect. It has been clinically confirmed that in patients taking warfarin for a long time, in addition to unexpected fluctuations in the anticoagulant effect due to physical conditions and changes in concomitant medications, dietary changes will also affect the efficacy of warfarin.

Foods that weaken the anticoagulant effect of warfarin.

Many green vegetables, including spinach, cabbage, asparagus, celery, kale, peas, etc., are rich in vitamin K, which can weaken the anticoagulant effect of warfarin.

Foods that enhance the anticoagulant effect of warfarin.

Some foods can enhance the anticoagulant effect of warfarin, such as garlic and warfarin can enhance the anticoagulant effect of warfarin; Fish oil enhances the anticoagulant effect of warfarin by inhibiting platelet aggregation and reducing the levels of coagulation-related thromboxane and vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors; Grapefruit contains coumarin compounds, which can inhibit the activity of drug-metabolizing enzymes in the liver, reduce the metabolism of warfarin, and enhance the anticoagulant effect. The combination of mango and warfarin can also enhance its anticoagulant effect.

In fact, a balanced diet is the most important thing for the body, don't think about what major surgery to make up for this and that, the key is to ensure the nutrition that the body needs, you eat too much, not necessarily absorbed, but increased the burden is not good. Moreover, the function of the digestive tract has not completely returned to normal at first, so it is also disadvantageous to increase the burden on the digestive tract.

In addition, after the valve is replaced, especially the mechanical valve, it must be lifelong anticoagulant warfarin, which is an anticoagulant effect by antagonizing vitamin K and interfering with vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors. This is because the body's vitamin K (VIT K) intake is relatively constant. We recommend that a certain amount of Vitk-rich greens be relatively balanced to help maintain consistent anticoagulant strength.

In addition, do not use certain drugs indiscriminately, such as cephalosporins, which will inhibit the bacteria that produce VIT K in the intestines, which will cause the anticoagulant effect to fluctuate.

Oh biological valve, congratulations, don't be anticoagulated for life, but after a few years this valve will break. Pork probably can't be eaten, because you've taken up people's hearts, and it's too cruel to eat it again.

I can understand your feelings, but patients should not rush to make up anything after the operation, the key is to ensure nutrition, eating too much may not be absorbed, but it will increase the burden is not good. Eat less foods that contain more vitamin K. In addition, green vegetables must be eaten, but the amount should be roughly the same every day.

In this way, there are no anticoagulant fluctuations. These questions must be understood.

Your dad changed to a mechanical valve, and he must have used warfarin for lifelong anticoagulation. Also, don't use certain medications indiscriminately.

Here, I hope your dad soon**.

I don't know much about the operation, I personally recommend mixing it with something to replenish blood and gas, and beat soy milk or paste for him to eat, so as to reduce the consumption of stomach digestion and direct absorption, and increase the time of absorption and replenishment I guess your father's physique must be acidic Acidic people are prone to problems Give it to be weakly alkaline It is also conducive to recovery Just eat more alkaline food.

Hello, after heart valve replacement surgery, conditioning needs to be carried out gradually according to the patient's time and recovery. Generally, after valve replacement, you need to rest for 3-6 months, during the rest period, you can take a walk, slight housework activities, should gradually increase the amount of activity, and at the same time maintain a happy mood after discharge, maintain an optimistic and positive attitude and firm beliefs, you can participate in some relaxed entertainment activities, do not be impatient and worried, and facilitate faster **. After discharge, the individual's eating habits can be gradually restored, and the water consumption should be appropriately controlled in the early postoperative period, and alcohol abuse and smoking should be avoided.

Pay attention to increase nutrition, replenish protein and vitamins. Do not eat foods that are too salty. Patients with poor cardiac function should limit their water intake and should not eat large amounts of porridge and soup.

In addition, although the patient's symptoms have been significantly improved after valve replacement, in order to maintain the good heart function, maintain the normal operation of the prosthetic valve, and prevent various complications after valve replacement. Therefore, after valve replacement, regular re-examination is also very important in order to understand the effect and recovery of the problem, so as to find the problem in time. I hope you find my answer helpful and I wish you good health and happiness.

Generally, people who change heart valves are people with very poor heart function ·· The most common in China is simple mitral stenosis·· In other words, if the mitral valve is replaced, I guess that the prosthetic valve is very different from the valve itself.

Although it can alleviate the symptoms to a large extent, if you have money in the family, you should continue to take care of him as a person with a level 2 heart function, don't let him work, go to play Tai Chi every day, and then read books and newspapers, eat a reasonable diet, and you must quit smoking... Drinking must also be abolished... After eating, walk a hundred steps and live to ninety-nine.

Hello, take a look at our space.

This doctor should have explained.

It is recommended to contact a cardiovascular doctor to adjust the medication.

Although the patient's symptoms have improved significantly after valve replacement, due to the lesion for many years, the cardiac surgery cannot return to normal in a short period of time, and the following points should be paid attention to after the operation:

1.Step by step, gradually resume work, it is best to recuperate for 6 months after surgery, and decide whether you can work according to the recovery of cardiac function. In the early days, you can take half a day of work, and the physical labor can be from light to heavy, and gradually adapt, so as to feel not tired or flustered and short of breath.

Walking, light household activities, and no forced labor are allowed to avoid heart failure.

2.After being discharged from the hospital, you should maintain a happy mood, maintain an optimistic and positive attitude and firm beliefs, and you can participate in some relaxing entertainment activities, do not be impatient and worried, so as to be faster**.

3.Cardiac diuretics should be taken routinely for six months after surgery, and then reduced according to the situation.

4.There may be some mental and emotional changes and memory loss after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, and most patients will disappear quickly, so there is no need to worry.

5.Although the incision heals after surgery, the sternum will take a long time to heal (about half a year), so heavy physical activity cannot be performed. With the recovery of the body, some patients will feel tension or even pain in the neck, shoulders and other muscles, which require slight activity, and gradually improve after functional exercises.

6.If the patient has rheumatic disease or is young, it should be actively anti-rheumatic**, mainly with long-acting penicillin intramuscular injection or oral enteric-coated aspirin**.

7.Pay attention to nutrition, but do not eat too much, do not eat excessively fatty foods and salty foods.

8.Don't get pregnant for a year after surgery and wait until your heart function is restored.

9.Moderate sex and don't overexert yourself.

10.It is necessary to go to a major hospital for regular check-ups and take medication under the guidance of a doctor, especially the use of anticoagulant drugs.

Half a year after discharge, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up. At this time, the heart function gradually improves, and the effect after the hand can be evaluated. If you encounter any of the following situations, you should go to the hospital for re-examination in time

Chest pain rather than incision pain. Heart rate below 60 beats or above 120 beats. Heart rhythm disturbances, such as frequent premature ventricular contractions (premature contractions), paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, and irregular heartbeats or pulses, are present.

Persistent high fever of 38 or more, or infection. Edema of the lower extremities, sudden weight gain, shortness of breath, palpitation, shortness of breath, coughing up frothy sputum. Nausea and vomiting without obvious causes, sclera and **xanthochromia, etc.

Sudden syncope, coma, hemiplegia, aphasia or pain in the lower limbs, chills, pallor, etc. There are bleeding phenomena such as subcutaneous bleeding, hematuria, and melena. Other obvious conditions.

50 years old. It's hard to say. This disease is not something you ask about on the Internet, you have to go to the examiner. Then decide whether to change or not. Can it be changed? Can you pass the surgery?

It's good to have surgery without saying anything. Going to the operating table at the age of 50 is a high risk. What's more, it's still a valve change. Wish. Peaceful.

As for the precautions and so on, the surgeon will tell you. The success rate, as long as the physical condition allows, is great. Accidents are rare. My opinion is that mechanical flaps are better.

According to your description, the patient has "rheumatic heart disease", which can lead to atrial fibrillation, which tends to form blood clots in the heart, and when the blood clots fall off, they cause "cerebral infarction". Moreover, the emboli may fall off again and again, causing patients to have repeated "cerebral infarctions", which will have very bad consequences for patients and their families. Yes, you need to have valve replacement surgery!

Heart valve replacement surgery should be possible. Valve stenosis or insufficiency affects heart function, causing atrial fibrillation and cerebral embolism. Only 56 years old, should be replaced with mechanical valves.

I had aortic valve prolapse, which I changed in 2008, when I replaced a mechanical valve, the operation fee was 60,000 yuan, the mechanical valve was 14,000, and the biological valve should be 4,000.

No matter what the valve, there will be sequelae, but the patient has been rheumatism for a long time, and the heart valve has been damaged, and now it is not a matter of money or not, it is a matter of life.

Surgery can be done, but some examinations should be done, such as cardiac color ultrasound, coronary angiography, etc., and it is recommended to go to Beijing Anzhen Hospital or Fuwai Hospital.

Regarding heart valve replacement surgery, history of rheumatic heart disease for more than 30 years, atrial fibrillation. In 02, he had a cerebral thrombosis, and now his right leg is weak, he walks slowly, and he has a lot of difficulty turning. Can you do heart valve replacement surgery, how does surgery help:

Strength. Replace the mechanical valve, the total cost is about 50,000 yuan.

I hope you find the above reply helpful.

It seems to be a bit troublesome to have atrial fibrillation during valve replacement surgery, so find a hospital with a number to consult a professional doctor.

At that time, I changed to a mechanical valve, about 16,000 a flap, and about 6,000 in China.

I made it in 06, 70,000 double petals, 4-5 single petals, and 100,000 triple petals.

First of all, the valve must be replaced for the following reasons.

1.Cerebral thrombosis, which is very much the blood clot of atrial fibrillation, falls into the brain with the blood circulation, forming a cerebral thrombosis, and the blood clot in the heart is caused by atrial fibrillation, which is caused by valvular disease, and that's the approximate cause and effect.

2 Valve replacement is now a routine procedure for cardiac surgery and is generally safe.

Surgery can fundamentally change the problem with the valves, and then the blood clot caused by atrial fibrillation can be removed.

Question 3 If you change the valve, it must be a mechanical valve At present, the general lifespan of a biological valve is 10 years, 56 years old, in the future, you don't want her to open her chest and replace the valve again at the age of 66-70 The mechanical version can be used for life, but you need to take warfarin for a long time, and the anticoagulant drug is not expensive, and from another aspect, anticoagulation is also beneficial to cerebral thrombosis.

The difference between biological valves (expensive) and mechanical valves (cheap) is less than 10,000.

Here in Shanghai, single-valve replacement is 5-60,000 yuan, and double-valve replacement is 6-80,000 yuan.
