Is heartache related to heart failure, and what is heart failure?

Angina is not necessarily heart failure.

Heart failure is not an independent disease, but refers to the severe stages of various ** heart diseases. Heart failure is due to initial myocardial damage and stress, including systolic or diastolic ventricular overload and/or changes in the number and quality of myocardial cells (segmental e.g., myocardial infarction, diffuse e.g., myocarditis), causing ventricular and/or atrial hypertrophy and enlargement, ventricular remodeling, followed by ventricular hypofunction, which progresses gradually.

Heart valve disease, coronary arteriosclerosis, hypertension, endocrine disorders, bacterial toxins, acute pulmonary infarction, emphysema, or other chronic lung diseases can cause heart disease and cause heart failure. Pregnancy, exertion, and rapid intravenous fluid replacement can increase the burden on the diseased heart and induce heart failure.

Heart failure due to other causes: For example, in valvular heart disease, myocardial hypertrophy and cardiac enlargement occur due to myocardial overload, followed by heart failure due to relatively insufficient myocardial contractility, pump dysfunction is secondary and can be easily reversed when the valve disorder is removed.

Heart failure caused by causes other than myocardium is often accompanied by myocardial damage in advanced stages.

In addition to diseases of the heart itself, such as congenital heart disease, myocarditis, cardiomyopathy, severe arrhythmias, endocarditis, etc., diseases other than the heart, such as acute nephritis, toxic pneumonia, severe anemia, hemolysis, large amounts of intravenous fluids, and complications after surgery, can also cause heart failure.

There can be many causes, such as arteriosclerosis, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the heart, ischemia and hypoxia;

For example, blood circulation disorders (cor pulmonale) lead to long-term overload of the heart, and after a long time, heart failure will occur if it cannot be supported;

In short, there are many reasons that need to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

Heart failure is simply understood as the power of the heart cannot provide the power to push the blood, resulting in a decline in heart function, circulatory congestion, respiratory difficulties, edema and a series of systemic symptoms.

It is a variety of reasons that cause the heart's pump to be immobile, and many factors that increase the burden on the heart, increase the consumption of the province, and lead to the decline of heart function will lead to heart failure.

In general, heart failure occurs during a myocardial infarction, but the cause of heart failure is not only caused by a myocardial infarction.

1. Causes of decreased myocardial systolic function: such as coronary heart disease, myocarditis, myocardial infarction, etc.

2. It leads to an increase in consumption in the province and the power of the heart cannot provide enough blood, such as infection, pregnancy, arrhythmia, strenuous exercise, etc.

3. The burden on the heart increases, exceeding the limit of the heart's power, for example, a large number of rapid blood transfusions and rehydration, pulmonary embolism, valvular insufficiency of the heart, etc.

4. Other factors, such as severe electrolyte imbalance, poisoning, idiopathic cardiopathy, etc.

Heart failure is a very serious disease, and when heart failure occurs, it means that the patient's condition is already very serious, and it must be treated and rescued in time by the hospital.

What are the signs of heart failure and its prevention.

In general, patients with heart disease may have heart failure when they have the following signs:

Symptoms such as chest and ascites, hepatomegaly, heart enlargement, palpitation, shortness of breath, fatigue, and cyanosis appear.

How can heart failure be prevented?

1. Avoid respiratory tract infections and find them in time**?

2. Avoid overwork.

3. Avoid mental trauma and emotional agitation.

4. Avoid full food, drink plenty of water, and limit salt intake?

5. Take medicine strictly according to the doctor's instructions.

6. Strictly control the amount of infusion, and pay attention to the infusion speed can not be too fast?

7. Control hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes; Maintain your ideal weight?

What should patients with heart failure pay attention to?

1. Take medication reasonably: Insist on taking medication strictly according to the doctor's instructions, and remember to change or stop taking the medication by yourself to avoid serious consequences.

2. Strictly control the diet: balanced diet, regular diet, total control, moderate amount of water, dinner should be less and light and limit salt: salt intake per day < 5 grams; Water Restriction:

Keep the balance of inflow and output, and the output is slightly greater than the inflow; Keep the stool smooth, increase vegetables and fruits, and supplement vitamin C; Eat small and frequent meals, quit smoking and alcohol, and avoid strong tea and coffee.

3. Pay attention to daily life: pay attention to cold and warmth, prevent colds, and seek medical attention as soon as possible in case of respiratory infectionsReasonable rest, appropriate exercise, it is recommended to take a nap every day, and if you feel uncomfortable, you should stop and rest immediately.

4. Regular re-examination: Draw blood regularly, recheck potassium, sodium, urea nitrogen, creatinine, etc., and strive to keep it in a healthy range. Self-monitoring, pay attention to the changes in body temperature, pulse, respiration, blood pressure and weight, and seek medical attention as soon as possible if there is any abnormality.

5. Optimistic and peaceful: we should not be pessimistic about the condition, but be optimistic and open-minded, face the reality, and deal with it calmly. Active participation and active cooperation are key.

It is the abbreviation of heart failure, myocardial failure, insufficient blood supply to the heart, resulting in dizziness [severe leading to fainting], fatigue, fatigue, chest tightness and shortness of breath, and in severe cases, it can lead to death.

Heart failure refers to the decline of the pump function of the heart, medically called heart failure or cardiac insufficiency, generally divided into left heart failure and right heart failure, the development of severe heart function of the whole heart is involved, the reasons are more complex, the more common are the following.

1；Rheumatic heart disease, is an immune disease, mostly due to hemolytic streptococcal infection after antibody autoimmunity, mainly invades the heart valve, the earliest often occurs in the mitral valve, ** mostly exists in adolescence, slowly involves the valve, the course of the disease is longer, the beginning of the symptoms of shortness of breath when exertion, waking up when sleeping at night, decompensated mitral valve face, heart failure is mostly left heart failure, and then serious will affect the entire heart function.

2；Cormonale heart failure, referred to as cor pulmonale, has asthma and chronic bronchitis, emphysema and other causes of increased airway resistance, pulmonary congestion, manifested as wheezing, bruising of the lips and edema.

3；Congenital heart disease, referred to as congenital heart disease, is caused by viral infection or genetics, drugs and other reasons in the fetal period, and the clinical manifestations are different due to different lesions, such as ventricular septal or atrial septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, and tetralogy. Surgical repair is usually required.

4；Hypertensive heart disease, long-term hypertension causes increased left ventricular pressure and myocardial hypertrophy, heart failure.

5；Coronary heart disease, heart failure, due to insufficient blood supply to the coronary arteries or infarction, resulting in the corresponding regional myocardial function impairment.

There are many more, such as myocardial metabolism caused by diabetes, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, vitaa deficiency, etc., as well as severe infections and viral myocarditis, as well as a sudden increase in blood volume caused by large amounts of intravenous fluids.

It is that the heart disease is more serious, but it does not mean that it is not saved, positive**, many heart failure patients can gradually get better, and this disease is actually not serious **, resulting in the gradual aggravation of the condition. Therefore, if you are sick, you can't put it off, and if you have a serious conditioning body, you can combine traditional Chinese medicine to regulate the body. Traditional Chinese medicine is very effective in regulating the body.

Heart failure.

There is acute heart failure, chronic heart failure.

Failure means that the heart is not able to supply blood to the body properly, usually due to damage to the heart caused by other health conditions. If you have heart disease, an attack can damage your heart, which can lead to heart failure.
